CardFaceView.boardMenu/boardActions restructured to the owner's shape (card
fe66c461): Open/Copy Link/Rename/Style▸(Symbol,Color), a divider, then
Copy/Cut/Paste/Paste Special▸(Paste Image into Card), a divider, then
Navigation▸(Move Left,Move Right), a divider, then Send to Trash. Every row
routes through existing machinery — no new commands.
ClipboardStore gains copy(from:targeting:)/cut(from:targeting:) and their
canCopy/canCut twins, so Copy and Cut can widen to the clicked card exactly
as Delete and Style already do ("right-clicking something outside the
selection acts on what was clicked"), without disturbing the Edit-menu path.
LaneMoveTarget.destination is extracted out of MoveLaneCommands so the
card menu's Navigation rows validate against the identical sole-live-lane
predicate as Board ▸ Move Left/Right. Since a card id can never itself
satisfy that predicate, the two rows are wired to the real store call but
unconditionally disabled — reading the live selection per card face would
reproduce the O(board) render regression isSelected/selectedCount exist to
prevent (contextMenu's builder is not lazy).
Style ▸ Symbol and ▸ Color both open the one existing style popover — no
per-section pre-focus (StyleEditorSession has no such concept, and
StyleEditorView internals are out of scope while another pass redesigns
the pickers). Paste and Paste Image into Card reduce their .disabled
checks to selection/snapshot-free forms, proven safe by construction (a
rendered card face already guarantees a live lane / a live board card).
Journaled on the card: Copy Link kept (shipped same day, not in the
owner's list), "Delete" relabeled "Send to Trash" (board-side move, not
the permanent trash delete), quick-style recents row dropped from this
menu, Navigation's always-disabled rows, and Paste not retargeting to the
clicked card — all flagged needs owner review. DESIGN/11-command-nexus.md's
Card row is owed a rewrite, left for the main session.
Tests: LaneMoveTarget.destination (new), targeted copy/cut (new), plus
existing ClipboardStore/PasteTarget/MoveLane/CopyLink/Trash-menu/PasteImage/
PasteFile/Style/CaretChord/render-performance/equatable-gate suites —
156 tests, all passing.

`titlebarAppearsTransparent` is not the app's to hold on a scene window: it is
the AppKit face of the tree's resolved `toolbarBackgroundVisibility`, and
SwiftUI writes it on every pass that re-applies a window's configuration. The
board stated nothing, so `.automatic` resolved and each pass put `false` back
over what `HostedWindowController` had set out of band — correct on open,
because the walk lands after the pass that follows window creation, and opaque
at the next one, with nothing to re-assert it since the board's own reading had
not changed. The board now declares the posture where SwiftUI will keep
asserting it; the AppKit write stays as the same value one turn earlier.

The card window's trailing attributes sidebar has always been unconditional
since m6; this adds View ▸ Show Sidebar (a checkmark toggle, ShowComments'
shape) and a matching toolbar item on the customizable card toolbar
(NSToolbar/WindowToolbarController), a fourth default beside Edit Body,
Raw Source and Add Attachment. sidebar.right for the trailing pane; one
shared animated write path (AppPreferences.setShowCardSidebar) both faces
call, structural-voice reflow with a trailing slide-and-fade transition
(Motion.cardSidebarTransition), Reduce Motion respected throughout.
CardWindowMetrics.minimumSize gains a sidebar: Bool = true parameter so a
hidden sidebar shrinks the window's floor, composing with the existing
commentsColumn parameter. The toolbar item's read/write are injectable
closures (defaulted to the real UserDefaults-backed pair) so its plumbing
is testable without touching the developer's own preferences domain.
WindowToolbarController's observation tracking only sees @Observable
reads, so a small HostedWindowController.revalidateToolbar() plus an
onChange nudge keeps the toolbar button's on-state in step with the
View-menu row's write.
Scope held narrowly to visibility, per the card: no sidebar section
reordering, no action-moving.

The image branch's precedence ladder always had a second clause: a file URL on the
pasteboard suppresses it, "a different gesture with a different answer" that the
code deliberately declined rather than guessed at. This fills it in: one or more
file URLs paste through the same `importAttachments` a Finder drop takes — one
collision ladder, one folder refusal (`FinderDrop.partition`), one set of banners
— outranking raw image data riding beside it (a Finder-copied image file carries
both; the actual file lands, not a re-encoded copy of its bytes) while still
deferring to the app's own clipboard type. Both ⌘V surfaces read the same
`ClipboardStore.fileURLPayload`, so the board's fallback and the card window's own
branch stay in step by construction rather than by two hand-kept-in-sync checks.
Fixed a real leak in the body editor's paste yield along the way: `public.file-url`
conforms to `public.url`, which `NSTextView` legitimately reads for a pasted
hyperlink, and `NSPasteboard.availableType(from:)` matches by conformance rather
than exact type — so a Finder copy carrying a generic URL representation beside
its file URL would have been silently swallowed as text and never reached the
window's attachment branch at all. The yield now declines outright on any
file-URL pasteboard before the generic capability check runs.

Kanban.xcodeproj must be regenerated (xcodegen generate) before building.
CardWindowMetrics.commentsColumnWidth was a fixed figure between the body
column and the comments pane in the side-by-side layout; it is now only the
resting default. A new CommentsColumnDivider replaces the plain Divider()
between the two panes with a real HStack element carrying a resize-left-right
cursor and a drag gesture, clamped through a new pure seam,
CardWindowMetrics.clampedCommentsColumnWidth — never narrower than the
existing commentsMinimumWidth floor, never wide enough to push the body under
its own bodyMinimumWidth. The drag tracks live in memory
(commentsColumnWidthOverride) and writes AppPreferences.commentsColumnWidthKey
exactly once, on release, mirroring LaneResizeSession's live-track/write-once
split rather than hammering UserDefaults per tick.
Persistence is app-wide via @AppStorage, matching showComments and
commentsBesideBody — the pane's other two layout bits — rather than the
per-card BoardRegistry.cardWindowFrames: this is "how the pane is arranged,"
the same kind of fact those two already are, not a per-card window geometry.
Flagged on the card thread as a call worth owner review.
Six new unit tests cover the clamp's two floors, the degenerate case where a
container is too narrow for both, and its agreement with
CardWindowMetrics.minimumSize at the window's own floor.

File ▸ Export ▸ writes the frontmost board as Obsidian Kanban Markdown, a
plain Markdown outline, or RFC 4180 CSV; File ▸ Import Board… reads any of
the three back into a fresh board, format detected rather than asked. Every
format encodes order as document position, so an export writes no ranks and
an import mints them in parse order on the ordinary create path. Lossy
exports post a warning-tone loss row naming the comments and attachments the
destination cannot carry. Convert-once: nothing watches, nothing merges.

Commands validate by conditional responder attachment, so the cached
imagePayload decided whether ⌘V had a responder at all — and the one
pasteboard writer that never deactivates the app, the screenshot hotkey,
changed the pasteboard without any checkpoint firing. Menu validation is
now two concrete moments: a menu beginning to track, and ⌘ going down,
whose beat before the letter is when the observation re-arms the
responder. One changeCount read per check, no timers.

⌘V grows an image-data branch, below the app's own clipboard format and refused
outright while a file URL is on the pasteboard: a screenshot or a browser's Copy
Image lands as "Pasted Image.png" in the anchor card's attachments/, through the
very import path Finder file drops and ⇧⌘A take — one bracket, one Finder-style
collision ladder, one set of banners, and the same silence a drop's arrival has.
A card window's ⌘V pastes onto its own card; a focused text field still wins the
selector natively. A file-shaped flavor travels byte for byte, PNG preferred when
several are offered; TIFF and BMP are re-encoded to PNG, being interchange
encodings rather than files anyone wants in a folder.
The hero key gets the setter it was born owing: "Set as Hero" on any image row of
the attachment list, "Remove Hero" on the row that holds it, with menu-bar twins
so the context entry is nobody's only home. It writes as a restyle — one key, one
bracket, one invertible step on the window's own stack — and replaces rather than
refusing, because a card has one hero and the row that has it says Remove instead.
Edit ▸ Paste as Board Background is the same payload's other destination, taking
the existing background.image convention at its word: the picture into the board
folder as "Pasted Background.png", the colour subkey untouched, the generator's
overwrite-our-own-name rule inherited and its echo memo taught to tell the two
producers apart.

Duplicate's own posture — a faithful copy, `.git` the sole exclusion, attachments/comments/trash
carried verbatim — staged to a temp directory (BoardShareStager, ditto-zipped via
DittoZipArchiver) and presented through NSSharingServicePicker (BoardSharePresentation), anchored
to the board window's toolbar or its center. Follows Duplicate/Save as Template's flush-then-
cancellable-copy sequence under the banner's in-progress row (ShareBoardCommand, AppCommands.swift),
menu-validated on focus alone rather than the read-only lock (a share is a read, Print's own
posture) with the one carve-out an open inline title editor still needs. WriteOperation gains
.shareBoard for the banner vocabulary; 11-command-nexus.md's File menu table gains the row.

Root cause of the owner's repro (board window frontmost, File ▸ Print…
enabled, chosen from the menu, alert appears anyway): Kanban.entitlements
carried no com.apple.security.print key. The app is sandboxed, and a
sandboxed NSPrintOperation is denied by the sandbox with exactly this
wording — "This application does not support printing. Please contact
the application's developer." — regardless of which code path invokes
it. Fix: add the entitlement.
Alongside it, hardening for a separate, narrower failure mode that
happens to produce the identical alert text by a different mechanism:
PrintCommand used to disable itself over a window that published
neither a board nor a printable card (welcome, the template chooser,
Settings, the restore-bootstrap window, a card window whose board
hasn't joined). A disabled SwiftUI Button still owns its
.keyboardShortcut, so the unclaimed ⌘P chord fell through to AppKit's
own nil-target printDocument: action, whose stock failure is the same
system alert. The row now claims ⌘P unconditionally in every window;
scope resolves at the moment of the action instead (board, then card,
then a polite "Nothing to Print" / "Open a board or a card to print
it." refusal in the app's own voice). The boolean isEnabled(hasBoard:
hasPrintableCard:) becomes a three-way PrintCommand.resolveScope(...)
-> Scope pure function.
Also implements AppDelegate's application(_:printFiles:withSettings:
showPrintPanels:) — Finder's own File ▸ Print… / drag-to-printer /
print-and-open path was previously unhandled, its own separate route
to the same stock alert. PrintCoordinator.printFiles loads each path
headless through BoardLoader (no store, no window) and either prints
it or gives the same one-sentence refusal; the operation-building code
shared with the in-app path is factored out of run(_:) into
makeOperation(for:showsPrintPanel:) and runOperation(_:session:).
Docs: 11-command-nexus.md's Print row, PrintCommand's and
PrintCoordinator's doc comments, KanbanApp.swift's CommandGroup
comment, and project.yml's entitlements comment all narrate the
entitlement as the actual fix and the scope work as hardening beside
it.
Tests: PrintCommandValidationTests now exercises resolveScope's three
arms in place of the old boolean. A new PrintFinderResolutionTests
suite covers PrintCoordinator.resolveFinderPrint(atPath:) — the one
piece of the Finder half a test can drive without handing AppKit a
real print job — against a real board, an empty non-board folder, a
plain file, and an unsupported schema.

Card 737a949f: "Add an option to card context menu to copy a link to
the card folder." Implements the design ruling verbatim.
- New context-menu row "Copy Link" (CardFaceView.boardMenu, board
side only — trash cards are excluded, matching "sole selected live
card"). Writes the clicked card's folder in one pasteboard item
carrying two representations: the file:// URL under .fileURL and
the plain absolute path under .string (FolderLinkPasteboard.swift).
Enabled on a sole selected live card; disabled on a multi-selection
and wherever edit-shaped actions already disable, per the ruling.
Also exposed as a VoiceOver custom action alongside its siblings.
- Menu-bar twin: Board ▸ Copy Link (BoardCommands.swift,
CopyLinkCommand), no default chord — the every-function-a-menu-item
contract in DESIGN/11-command-nexus.md is still current, so this is
the twin that contract calls for, homed the way Open Card/Rename/
Style… already are.
- DESIGN/11-command-nexus.md: new Board-menu row and an updated Card
context-menu row.
- Tests (KanbanTests/CopyLinkTests.swift): the target predicate's
enablement (sole card / multi-selection / lane / trash / empty /
inline-editing), the pasteboard write's exact bytes via a fake
pasteboard (both representations, exact folder URL), and a
disabled-target no-op.
Caught and fixed during self-review: an early version read the
context menu's widened-selection helper (targetIDs) inside the
Copy Link row's .disabled(...), which reads store.selection. Since
.contextMenu's content closure is evaluated on every ordinary body
pass (not only when the menu opens), that resubscribed every card
face on the board to every selection change — the exact O(board)
regression RENDER-INSTRUMENTATION.md's isSelected/selectedCount
split exists to prevent, caught by BoardRenderPerformanceTests and
MarqueeRenderCostTests. Fixed by reading the already-hoisted,
non-Observable `selectedCount` parameter instead, which answers the
same "how many ride along" question at zero extra subscription cost.
xcodegen generate, the Kanban scheme build, and the full KanbanTests
suite (2816 tests) are clean.

Diagnosed by sampling a live frozen instance: with a text surface focused,
RedoMenuRow's body reads the routed manager's title, NSUndoManager.canRedo
posts NSUndoManagerCheckpoint synchronously, UndoCommandTicker bumps its
observed revision mid-body, and SwiftUI schedules the re-evaluation whose
own read posts the next checkpoint — the main thread never returns to the
event loop (~99% CPU, app frozen). Board-routed reads never echo, because
BoardUndoManager's overrides answer from the provider without posting —
which is why the board-only live probe (21/21) never met the loop.
The rows now derive title and enablement inside
UndoCommandTicker.silencingReadEchoes, a synchronous main-actor window in
which bump() drops what arrives: a read cannot change the state it reads,
so the echo carries no information and dropping it loses nothing. Genuine
checkpoints — registration closing a group, a crossing — still land.
Three regression tests pin the mechanism, including the asymmetry that
made the redo side the fuel: canUndo answers silently, canRedo posts.

⌘P had no story: KanbanApp removed the platform's Print row outright on
11-command-nexus.md's "No Print story in v1 (⌘P unused)" line. That line
retires. File ▸ Print… now prints the board in front — lanes left to right,
each lane's cards top to bottom, as a linear document rather than a picture
of the strip — or, from a card window, that card. The trash is unreachable
by construction: it is a sibling container of `lanes`, not a lane.
The rules live in a pure layer nothing AppKit can reach. `PrintOptions` is
one Codable value carrying the printing card's five bullets — which
components (title, icon+labels line, rendered body, comments off by default
with either reading order), page breaks, one base face and size every other
size derives from, and a toggleable running head and foot. `PrintSource` is
what is being printed, frozen at ⌘P so the panel's repeated relayouts and a
board reloading underneath cannot disagree. `PrintDocumentBuilder` turns the
pair into a block list, which is where every decision a rendered page hides
becomes something a test can hold: component order, comment ordering, and
page-break markers that are markers rather than whitespace. Empty is empty
all the way up — a card with nothing to print consumes no page break, and a
lane whose cards all dropped out takes its heading with it.
A page break is a pagination fact, not a spacing one. TextKit has no
page-break character, so `PrintDocumentView` splits the document into
sections at its breaks and flows each into as many page-sized text
containers as it needs: a container boundary *is* a sheet boundary, at any
paper size with any margins. Bodies come from the app's one Markdown pass —
`BodyMarkup.parse` into `BodyMarkupRenderer` — re-faced run by run so the
chosen family reaches the text and fixed-pitch code keeps its own, and drawn
under a forced light appearance so the card window's dynamic label colours
do not print white.
Options ride in the print panel's own accessory rather than a pre-flight
sheet of ours, which buys the system's live preview of the real paginated
document; the preview refreshes through one KVO revision counter rather than
thirteen mirrored properties. Profiles persist app-side in UserDefaults,
never in board files — a print profile is how this user likes to read, not
what a board is (`BoardZoomStore`'s argument). A name is a profile's
identity, folded case-insensitively; "Last Used" is reserved in every
spelling, kept out of the stored list, and captured when an operation
actually ran, so a cancelled print rewrites nothing. Both decoders are
total: one unrecognized key must not cost a user every profile they saved.
DESIGN/11-command-nexus.md gains the Print row and loses the sentence
saying it would never have one.

Edit ▸ Undo/Redo become the app's own replaced rows and the board toolbar
pair takes explicit targets, both reading the focused session's
BoardUndoManager through FocusedValues.undoStack (board windows publish the
session's manager, card windows their own) — the nil-target route died with
the SwiftUI window latch, 13-native-undo.md ▸ Rules ▸ command surface,
re-ruled 2026-08-08. The rows enact the routing predicate themselves: text
focus routes ⌘Z to the first responder's own manager, title and enablement
included, re-derived at fire time with a beep for the stale window.
NativeHistoryProvider turns @Observable so both surfaces re-derive on stack
changes; a checkpoint-notification ticker covers plain text managers.
.responderAction leaves ToolbarItemSpec with its only user;
windowWillReturnUndoManager stays wired for AppKit's own asks.
Live-probed on the fixture board (21/21): the row retitles to "Undo Add
Lane" and crosses via real ⌘Z key events, ⇧⌘Z redoes via a window-server
chord, the toolbar pair validates and fires, search-field and body-editor
⌘Z stay text undo with board stacks untouched, and a card window crosses
its own stack with no fall-through. 2698 unit tests green.

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.

Step 4 of strategy/01-git-excision.md, the entangled one: AppModel's makeHistoryProvider collapses to the native provider (the seam stays injectable per the reversibility posture), the session's git state and its wiring go (wireGitUndo, wireBranchSwitching, the card-session staging threading), BoardStore sheds commitSeam and the identity-history ranker (the loader's nil-safe rung now tops out at birth date — today's no-git behavior), SessionSettleGate keeps the gate and inherits the path utility it borrowed, BoardRegistry drops the persisted operation stamp (decode-safe), and the git banner family leaves BannerCenter with its announcer and accessibility phrases. One missed harvest tie severed (the narrator's root subject is its own now). Nothing outside Kanban/Git/ references the stack — proven by sweep. 2,855 tests green.

Step 3 of strategy/01-git-excision.md: the popover strip is Info/Theme/Sync, the titlebar widget says the name alone, the card window's History section and its slot go, Board ▸ Pull/Push comes out with the RemoteCommands scaffold, and View ▸ History re-tags from the commit trail to the deferred foreign-change journal. The Sync placeholder re-annotates to the future ops-based sync service. Four git test suites leave with the surfaces they pinned (BoardGitSetup, BoardInfoPopover, BranchSwitch, GitUndo).

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

HistoryStore.compose(boardRoot📒) returns non-optional and runs for
every session — the nil the gate produced was the only nil it ever had.
makeHistoryProvider is a one-axis decision: git-mode boards bind the git
provider, everything else native, in every tier; Session.tier stays
recorded, dormant. BoardGitSection shrinks to the four mode postures
(.absent and .proPointer die, BoardGitNote and the .git probe with them);
every board carries all three popover tabs (BoardInfoTab.available
retired); the titlebar branch shows on any git-mode board; the settings
sheet and card History section stop reading tier. InertGitTests is
repurposed as UntouchedGitTests — the file layer still never opens .git,
now load-bearing for mode-none boards. The accessibility audit reaches the
settings sheet at last: the fixture board hosts it in every tier, so the
free-fixture disabled-row test becomes an open-and-audit test.

Measured on real events 2026-08-07, correcting the 2026-08-06 hosted
finding: a bare count-1 tap on LaneView's empty-space layer fires in
~1-3 ms with no drag source at all — the hold that made the empty
.onDrag look necessary was the sterile NSApp.postEvent stream
over-disambiguating. And the provider was actively harmful: even an
empty drag source claims the mouse-drag at threshold, starving the
marquee's simultaneous DragGesture after one sample — the band froze
and the mouseUp never arrived. The layer goes dragless; drags from
empty space belong wholly to MarqueeControl. PointerClick's and the
layer's comments retell the corrected story. Alongside: openCard is
typed @MainActor throughout, which makes the closure Sendable and
lets CardFaceRole carry it under CardFaceView's nonisolated ==.

View ▸ Appearance (11-command-nexus.md): three radio-exclusive rows,
app-wide, persisted, needing no window in front — the View menu's new
last group. AppearanceStore owns the override's rules (absent key =
Auto, lenient reads degrade to Auto, remove-at-default) with an
injectable apply seam so test hosts never touch NSApp; the one real
apply hands NSApp.appearance its answer in applicationDidFinishLaunching,
the global side effect KanbanApp.init must not carry. The board toolbar
gains its first .picker item — an NSMenuToolbarItem whose rows re-fetch
their spec fresh, checkmark read at menu-open like every other menu row —
and Appearance joins the search field as the second default item,

The measured defect: LaneView's empty-space double-click was a second
sequential .onTapGesture(count: 2) stacked over the single tap, and that
recogniser held every click in the lane — its own empty space and every
card face alike — hostage to the system double-click interval while it
disambiguated (~475 ms click-to-selection on a hosted board). The fix is
structural: the empty-space surfaces live on a background layer behind the
masonry, so a card's click never shares a gesture path with a lane
recogniser; one .onTapGesture branches on PointerClick.count (AppKit's own
clickCount, read the way ClickModifier reads the keyboard) — first click
selects, second creates, Finder's cadence with nothing to disambiguate; and
the layer carries a load-bearing empty .onDrag, because without a drag
source macOS holds primary clicks pending multi-click disambiguation
(measured: never fires alone, ~90 ms with one present). A measured viewport
floor makes each lane's blank space actually belong to the layer — a
ScrollView proposes nothing along its scroll axis, so only an explicit
minimum stretches the content — with the trash column as its twin, less the
padding that sits inside its scroll content. The template chooser's stacked
pair collapses to the same one-recogniser branch, and the attachment rows
move their double-click to a simultaneous gesture (instant there, because
the row's real .onDrag forces immediate delivery). PointerLatencyTests pins
the recovery with synthetic pointer events on a hosted board.

View ▸ Zoom In / Zoom Out / Actual Size (⌘+ / ⌘− / ⌘0): 75%–200% in eight
rungs, app-wide and persisted (the Show Comments precedent) — a viewing
comfort, not a property of any one board. The level travels as
BoardZoomContext in the environment, injected on BoardView alone so the
banner strip, search bar, sheets and popovers stay at the system size; the
environment is also what carries it through CardFaceView's equality gate,
which compares nothing that moves with the level. Every BoardMetrics figure
follows zoom.bodyPointSize — card and lane chrome, drag replicas and the
count badge, the resize handle, the trash column — and the drop registry
carries the ruler for event-time reads, with the autoscroller's three
reaches turning font-derived (reachSide named as the stripGap it always
equalled). Lanes still divide the window; zoom never moves the window or
its floor. The toolbar gains a catalog-only Zoom In/Out pair mirroring the
menu rows' predicate; zoom holds shut mid-drag (frozen geometry), each rung
announces itself to VoiceOver, and the render suite pins both invariants:
a rung repaints every face, a no-op Actual Size repaints nothing.

background is {color:, image:} and only a mapping at every level; the board's image paints the full window under a transparent title bar, with a thin-material frost strip keeping the chrome legible and the standard accommodations intact.

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.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The loader gains a ParseMemo — the previous walk's parsed documents keyed
by root-relative path, trusted on the git-index heuristic (mtime + size,
no hashing) and passed as an input so the loader stays stateless. A hit
skips exactly one file read; schema, order, coercions, dedupe, and every
directory listing run fresh, so memoized and cold walks are output-
identical (golden-corpus equivalence suite). Entries record only past the
schema gate, so a defect can never be answered from the memo.
The store skips the snapshot assignment wholesale when the fresh model is
value-equal — no @Observable churn, no render pass, no snapshotGeneration
bump — and a new landedReloads counter carries walk-completion for the
three consumers whose subject is the walk, not the snapshot: the card
window's comment thread, the comment search index, and the auto-committer's
covering gate (which now counts a completed walk as covering even when
nothing changed). Warnings and defects move on their own equality; failed
reloads bump neither counter. An injectable ParseCounter makes the
single-file-echo claim a test.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The toolbar's search field now lives in AppKit's own NSSearchToolbarItem:
em(17) is the focused width (preferredWidthForSearchField), the resting
width is the item's own, and ⌘F becomes beginSearchInteraction — one call
that expands and focuses. Escape's empty-field exit collapses the field as
the keyboard leaves. resignsFirstResponderWithCancel is off so the staged
Escape survives the cancel button. The item ships its own live overflow row
and an above-.high visibility priority, so both custom-view workarounds
retire. The palette copy stays inert through an enablement round-trip the
item's searchField setter would otherwise overwrite.
The centering half of the card is blocked on a Design ruling (03 settles
"trailing") and is not built; the two-homes width question is filed.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Phase 3 of the decision surface, completing the card (01 ▸ Malformed
input, settled 2026-07-31). An attended open's fail-fast walk transforms
the loading window's content into one aggregated surface — never a
sheet, never a chain: defects grouped by class, each class stated once
with its files listed (Reveal in Finder + Open in Editor per row), a
class-level default preselected, per-item override behind a disclosure.
Only honest choices: YAML and malformed-schema get Editor + Re-check
(Skip below the root); newer-than-app gets Skip alone and blocks the
board at the root; the two root repairs — minted index, schema: 1 stamp
— are defaults. Repair and Open applies fixes in one store-less write
bracket and re-walks: clean proceeds, remainder re-aggregates into the
same surface. Cancel and ⌘W retire to welcome's row; restored opens
never see the surface at all (OpenOrigin rides the PendingOpen carrier).
Skips are per-open consent that rides the session — the store retains
the skip set and every reload passes it — and the opened board posts a
warning-tone notice naming what was left out, each item's Reveal riding
the banner strip's new reveal control. On Pro boards the repair bracket
binds its own EchoLedger, heal-marks everything, and the store adopts it
before the committer starts, so repairs land as one separate commit
authored Lanework Integrity — pinned end to end. Also fixed en route: a
retired loading window left its close interception installed and
returned false from windowShouldClose forever, blocking quit.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Phase 2 of the decision surface: the pre-snapshot loading state ruled
2026-07-29 (02 § Launch and window lifecycle), built. The board window
appears immediately at its saved frame, titled with the registry
record's cached name, its content a centered spinner behind an
injectable ~200ms grace — no skeletons, and the first snapshot snaps in
place. The tree walk runs off-main via BoardStoreRegistry.acquireOffMain
(per-board single-flight keyed by file identity — concurrent opens of
one root share a walk, restoration of many boards is genuinely
parallel), landing in BoardStore's new designated init(rootURL:loaded:);
the self-walking init survives as a convenience for its ~470 callers.
⌘W during the walk is real: configureWindow split into a loading half
(frame restore, frame tracking, close interception — installed before
the walk) and a store half (toolbar, widget, hideTitle, undo — installed
at the snap), and the walk lives in an explicitly held BoardOpenWalk so
the user's close and SwiftUI's teardown end in one cancel().
Cancellation is discard-on-completion: nil from acquireOffMain means
nothing was built, nothing retained, and no open-now flag was ever set.
Failure keeps today's sequence exactly: record the launch failure,
welcome's row carries it, the window retires.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Phase 1 of the decision surface (01 ▸ Malformed input, settled
2026-07-31): BoardLoadFailure aggregates the walk's defects in walk
order — stop-at-first retires. Environmental failures (unreadable root,
not-a-directory) stay immediate single-defect throws: there is no walk
to collect from. A defective root index is recorded and the walk
continues into the children (nothing in the walk consults the parsed
root document — verified); a defective lane, card, or trash-entry index
records and skips its subtree, Re-check's whole-walk re-aggregation
being the designed loop for what hides beneath. load(skipping:) is the
per-open skip channel: a skipped path's item is omitted from the model
and surfaces as LoadWarning.userSkipped; root paths are unskippable by
construction. The reload-breakage banner carries the aggregate ("…and
N more"), single-defect sentences byte-identical to before. Two new
multi-defect fixture boards; suite 2591 green.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The titlebar widget grows from a 20×18 chevron into one button saying
the board's name and, on a git-mode Pro board, its branch — click
anywhere across it and the popover opens as before, anchored to the
widget. BoardInfoTitlebarSummary is the pure seam for both strings
(title falls back to the folder name per 01's naming rule; branch only
under pro + git mode, live off the observable HistoryStore.branch).
Board windows now hide the system title display through the same
hideTitle slot card windows adopted — the widget says the name, so the
chrome would only repeat it — while navigationTitle keeps feeding
window.title to the Window menu, Exposé, VoiceOver and restoration.
The widget also refreshes the branch eagerly at appearance: it used to
populate only once the popover had been opened, which would have left
the new branch line empty on a freshly opened board.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The card's name renders as part of the card body, so the chrome said it
twice. HostedWindowController gains a titleVisibility slot on the same
retained-slot pattern as the accessory and toolbar (reapplied at attach,
so the macOS 26 provisional-window swap can't lose it); CardWindowHost
opts in beside installToolbar, board windows keep AppKit's default.
window.title itself is untouched — navigationTitle still feeds the
Window menu, Exposé, VoiceOver and restoration.
Known consequence, probed empirically: under .hidden AppKit collapses
title and subtitle into one hidden field, so the "board › lane"
navigationSubtitle disappears with it — and the details sidebar carries
no placement rows, so a card window currently shows its home nowhere.
Filed on the Redesign board to bless or relocate; 05-card-window.md's
subtitle sentence needs reconciling either way.

The full bullet list from Implementation card bf080d9a — both ruling
batches, including the three appended mid-session by 16ef377:
- Restore subjects compose the inverse, never nest: crossing "Undo: S"
emits "Redo: S" and vice versa; parity, not stack depth, reads a
legacy double prefix (GitHistoryProvider.restoreSubject).
- Git-operation failures join the one-shot failure banner tier:
BannerCenter.GitFailureBanner (undo/redo/branchSwitch/addGit), error
tone at failure rank merged with write one-shots by recency; the
postLoss compromise is retired at both AppModel wirings.
- order/schema optional below the board root: append-at-end reading
(ordered siblings first, folder-name tie-break among the order-less),
schema reads 1, both coerce-tier logged; the root keeps its
requirements. Ranks.resolvedOrders materializes finite ranks so
models and placement math stay untouched; first Writer rewrite
stamps a real rank on touch, placement against an order-less sibling
stamps that sibling inline in the same bracket. Agent guide v10
teaches optional keys and zero-read filing. Hostile-YAML order
shapes become coercion tests; Fixtures/Valid/optional-keys.kanban
replaces the four retired Malformed boards.
- .gitignore is the relocation-heal noise gate: GitignoreRules pure
matcher (standard semantics, board-root file only), loader consults
it once per walk so matched loose files keep the stray posture;
seeded (.DS_Store + .*.lanework-*) at board creation and template
instantiation, healed in when missing at open — repo-nested
included; empty file honored, existing files never edited; the
committer's obedience via libgit2 status is pinned by test.
- Comments crash-residue sweep gates on step ownership: HistoryStep
derives backing from its own undo expectations, backedContent unions
both stacks, the sweep purges per-entry only what no live step owns.
- Skip-purge decoupled (16ef377): a stale-skipped coarse step strands
whole in NativeHistoryProvider.strandedSteps — still backing, retired
only at session end; clean exits purge as before.
- Coarse close step named "Changes to '<card>'"; the fine body-edit
wording never leaks onto the board menu.
- Branch-switch settle clears every open card window's fine stack on
Save All and Discard alike; the empty fold registers no coarse step.
- Close flush awaits its covering snapshot (quiesce + one generation
bump, 1s bound), and an explicit flush now queues behind an
in-flight one instead of skipping — the audit-caught interleaving
could lose a close flush permanently when the debounce fired inside
the close sequence; regression tests force both races.
- Commit comment bullets sort chronologically by created, not UUID.
- The production-unwired CardBodyEditSession.editSessionDidChange seam
is deleted with its seam-only tests.
- Composition-root pins: beginSession composes the committer with the
store's own EchoLedger and binds the announcer (the miswire class).
- Deliberate 06 conformance pass over every 2026-07-31-tagged
sentence: fixed Change-custom-key subjects (the retired named
generic was the only producer), the unbuilt Replace attachment
vocabulary, heal commits now authored Lanework Integrity, the config
reader scopes identity to plain [user] sections, add-git re-runs
detection at create (a stale mode-none could initialize inside the
user's repo), and add-git failures answer at the form or the banner.
Structural residue filed on the Redesign board.

Repo-nested boards bind native undo in every tier (25d2513): the
no-undo case is gone, makeHistoryProvider answers git or native, and
the native path provably never touches the enclosing repository's
.git. Session undo steps anchor by card identity, never by path
(9119aa1): HistoryAnchor carries the card UUID (plus comment/draft
vocabulary) and apply-time validation resolves the current folder via
the same both-container walk writeCardBody uses — a board-side lane or
trash move no longer stales the coarse close step, while a genuine
field collision still skips it whole.
2448 tests in 423 suites green.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Phase C of the two-level undo card: the committer stages around the
whole open card folder — comments included — so gestures in an open
window never land in interim commits; window close flushes the session
as one semantically-named commit ("Edit card 'X'" with the thread as
body bullets, "Mixed update — N changes to card 'X'" when events mix),
with the two-commit foreign/user split preserved and the
comments/.trash purge riding the same bracket. Comment gestures lose
their per-gesture commits structurally (they write inside the held
folder). Branch-switch settle releases every window's staging before
checkout and re-arms on resume.
Fixes two latent pro-m1 defects: the committer was composed without
the store's EchoLedger, so every production commit classified foreign
and was authored Lanework External; and interim flushes dropped
harvest receipts they had not spent, unvouching the session's own
writes at close. Also lands 06's mixed-subject re-ruling (the retired
"Update board" fallback) and phase B's two files missed by the
previous commit's pathspec.
2444 tests in 422 suites green.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Phase B of the two-level undo card: every card-window gesture — comment
post/delete/edit, body Edit sessions, style and details changes —
registers fine-grained on the window's own stack (window.undoManager
answers with it; board ⌘Z never sees mid-session card steps; an empty
window stack beeps, never falls through). Window close folds the stack
into one coarse values-based board step ("Edit card 'X'") — per-target
per-field later-wins merge, so foreign mid-session writes stay out by
construction, a no-net-change session registers nothing, and any stale
component skips the whole step. The comments/.trash purge defers with
the coarse step via a step-retirement seam on the providers: it runs
when the step leaves the board stack or the board session ends; the git
provider retires dropped steps on register, which keeps Pro's
purge-at-close-flush structural with no tier check. Interim on git
boards: gestures still auto-commit per debounce until phase C's
close-flush commit.

The 2026-07-31 re-ruling: gitless boards bind the native stack in every
tier — a Pro upgrade no longer removes undo from mode-none boards — and
Pro git boards bind the git provider; repo-nested stays the no-undo
case under Pro, while the free tier (which never runs detection) binds
native there too, per 12's inert posture. Add-git now swaps a live
native substrate mid-session: the in-flight stack is cleared with the
discarded provider, the git trail seeds from the root commit, and the
same BoardUndoManager instance keeps nil-target menu validation fresh.

The trash sorts by modified descending — the arrival rank mint retires
(Ranks.isOrderedForTrash one comparator, loader + merged order agree;
the legacy deleted: migration stamps modified from the tombstone
timestamp where parseable; delete undo steps validate existence-only;
agent guide v8). Trash selection goes kind-blind — ranges, marquee,
Select All, and the successor walk sweep both kinds; the guard moves to
the exits (mixed-payload drop refusal, copy/cut validation). The copy
stamping preflight widens back to comment depth (load-scoped posture —
the board always loads, the gesture refuses whole). Fixes a latent
no-op: trashed-lane drag restore never fired (DragSession.beginLanes
hard-coded the board container).

GitBranchSwitcher holds 06's sequence as one object: settle editors
explicitly (SessionSettleGate — Save All applies raw buffers with
validation and a refused buffer cancels the whole switch; Discard
reverts buffers AND reconciles the session folders against HEAD;
never silent), flush the pending auto-commit, stamp intent in the
per-board registry, bracketed safe checkout (git_checkout_tree
GIT_CHECKOUT_SAFE + set_head — no path passes FORCE, abort
included), one reload via the async wholesale bracket (failed final
reload engages the existing read-only lock), reseed undo/redo from
the new HEAD with redo empty, clear the stamp. Create-and-switch
keeps the full sequence — the tree-cannot-change proof fails under
concurrent writers. Lock contention shows the 02 in-progress row's
waiting state ("waiting for another writer's git lock"), bounded at
30s then failing cleanly naming the lock path.
GitOperationStamp + GitOperationRecovery: the own-leftovers rule as
a pure conjunction — pause state AND matching stamp = the app's own
interrupted operation, aborted to the pre-operation state with a
banner, stamp cleared on success only; either alone defers to the
pause-and-defer stance. Checked where the committer starts.
BoardGitControls replaces the read-only branch line: branch picker,
inline create-and-switch, the abnormal-state pause note in 06's own
words with controls dimmed, and commit-identity fields that read and
write repo-local .git/config (derived default as placeholder, never
value; unfocused resync, focused keystrokes kept; 2s poll while
visible — .git is watcher-filtered by design).
Also fixes a shipped bug from the undo card: plan(reconciling:)
matched card ids as path prefixes, so the reconcile branch was inert
on every board (<lane>/<card> never matches a bare id) — a session
file the restore diff couldn't name (attachment, comment, draft)
survived Discard and landed in the next flush's commit. One shared
component-exact folder-name resolver now serves both Discard paths;
noteDiscarded takes cardFolderName; regression test verified failing
against the pre-fix code.
41 branch tests + the regression; 2374 tests / 409 suites green;
InertGitTests untouched.

GitHistoryProvider is the second HistoryProviding implementation:
its stack IS HEAD's first-parent ancestry, reseeded on load (redo
empty), re-synced to HEAD before every crossing so agents'
self-commits become the top and ⌘Z steps back exactly one commit;
any arriving commit clears redo (a heal-only window deliberately
does not). Restores are forward commits through the ordinary
signature path — GitRestoreOperation materializes only the
current-vs-target diff as working-tree writes and resolves no
reset/checkout symbol at all; heal commits are transparent
in-session (pointer passes over, restores exclude heal-owned paths,
identity carried on landed windows via PlannedCommit.kind →
GitLandedCommit). Subjects "Undo:/Redo: <crossed subject>"; menu
labels never nest in-session; the root commit is not a step
(crossing it would restore the empty tree).
Provider binding flips: makeHistoryProvider(store, tier, git) —
free binds native everywhere, Pro binds the git provider on git
boards and NOTHING on mode-none/repo-nested (the pair disables
through existing validation); add-git mid-session live-binds via
HistoryStore.didAddGit → bindHistoryProvider (the flip only ever
adds).
SessionSettleGate is the reusable Save All / Discard / Cancel step:
restores whose diff touches an open Edit session or raw-source
buffer gate on it (Save All applies with validation — a refused
buffer cancels the whole restore focused on the offender; Discard
reverts via CardBodyEditSession.discardBuffer and reconciles against
the working tree, deliberately skipping the second flush); untouched
sessions ride through undisturbed. Built for the branch-switch card
to reuse. BoardStore gains the async performWholesale sibling.
CardHistorySection fills the m6 EmptyView slot: read-only, newest
first, follows the card across lane moves by folder-component match
(the UUID is the identity — no rename detection), absent off git
mode and off Pro.

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.

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).

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.

The kind: comment field table lands in IntegrityRules (the per-kind
hook's first exercise), CommentThread reads one card's thread
window-scoped (the board walk stays O(cards)), and CommentWriter gains
the five gestures: draft save, post (rename .draft to a fresh UUID,
created/modified restamped in the bracket), edit, delete into
comments/.trash/, and the purge with its crash-residue memo. Post and
delete register move-based undo steps; draft saves, edits, and the
purge deliberately register nothing (13's no-capture rule). Copy
boundaries strip comments/.trash, carry .draft verbatim, and remint
threads; comments graduates to a displacing claimed name, with .draft,
.trash, and a comment's attachments claimed one level down.
CommentPath classifies changed paths into the 06 verb family for
later announcer/composer wiring.
One stated narrowing pending a ruling (filed on the findings board):
the copy transaction's refuse-whole preflight stays cards-and-lanes —
an unstampable copied comment copies verbatim with a log line, because
comment defects never refuse.
