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,
centered beside it (03-board-ui.md ▸ Toolbar, ratified 2026-08-07).

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.

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.

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.

Phase 3 of the one-app pivot (DESIGN 12 ▸ The entitlement / Distribution,
ruled 2026-07-30; card c3a3ddd5). New Kanban/Tier/: Tier (.free/.pro —
deliberately no .lapsed case; unsubscribed and lapsed are one state) and
the pure decision Tier.resolve(from:now:) over SubscriptionFacts
(expiration + willAutoRenew), unit-tested through all five named states:
free, active, lapsed, offline-grace, never-online.
The facts are a persisted cache (standard defaults), not a live view:
StoreKit ages an expired subscription out of currentEntitlements locally,
so an offline device and a real lapse are indistinguishable from that
property alone — the cache holds the last answer, empty entitlements
read as silence, and holds end only on a definitive answer (revocation,
or the subscription-group status read Settings performs). That is 12's
offline-grace trade, resolved toward the paying user.
ProEntitlement is the local adapter (currentEntitlements +
Transaction.updates, started from launch, never from a test host);
ProStorefront holds everything networked (product load, purchase,
AppStore.sync) and only the Settings section ever constructs one — the
split is the enforcement of "never network on the open path".
beginSession reads the tier once at composition; BoardSession.tier is a
let with no path back in, so a lapse never rebinds an open session.
makeHistoryProvider now takes the tier; both tiers bind the native stack
until pro-m1 builds the git provider — the seam's consumer is named, not
invented early.
Settings gains the Pro section (subscribe with localized price, manage,
restore; a quiet unreachable line, no indefinite spinner) — the third of
the exactly-three Pro mentions; the About line gains its "…in Settings"
pointer now that there is a Settings to point at. A successful purchase
or restore offers once to reopen open boards (close + reopen through the
ordinary paths). Configuration.storekit wired into the scheme's run
action for ASC-free exercise; RELEASE.md gains the pro-m1 store-side
steps and the rule that the product must not be configured before then.

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 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.

Every crossing validates its expectations before writing: each step
carries per-item HistoryExpectations — folder, effective ancestor-walked
liveness, and exactly the fields the gesture set — and a mismatch pops
the step, posts the signpost ('Undo skipped — Fix login changed outside
Lanework'), and falls through to the next. Validation reads disk, not
the in-memory snapshot: the snapshot is by construction one reload
behind every app write, so a rapid second undo would false-skip against
the pre-state — disk is what current can honestly mean at press time.
Stale and failed part ways: a stale step is one the board moved past,
so dropping it loses nothing; a failed one is refused by a usually
momentary condition, so it stays put and the crossing stops with only
performWrite's own error row — which forced the provider off
NSUndoManager onto two plain arrays, since a popped group cannot be put
back. The read-only lock disables Undo/Redo through the adapter while
the stack survives to resume on clear. Delete and restore validate
presence alone — a machine timestamp is not a decision — and a
malformed field matches nothing, since it is a shape the app never
writes.

The provider seam 12 promised: HistoryProviding speaks 13's vocabulary
— register a HistoryStep (bare 06 phrase plus undo/redo closures
returning applied or skipped), canUndo/canRedo, action names, clear —
and no UndoManager type appears anywhere in it, proven by a fake that
satisfies the seam with counters. The base provider wraps a private
UndoManager with groupsByEvent off so coalescing stays the Writer call
site's decision; undo re-registers the reversed step from inside the
undo, which makes a stale-skipped step vanish for free and the
crossing loop fall through to the next. BoardUndoManager adapts the
protocol to the responder chain — a stackless UndoManager subclass
answering from the provider — so Pro's git provider inherits menu
enablement, dynamic titles, and the nil-target toolbar pair by binding
the protocol. One stack per board session, born in beginSession,
cleared in the close flush; every window over the board answers it
through windowWillReturnUndoManager. Headless probes shaped the
routing: a real NSTextView's own manager wins natively, but a field
editor's does not — BoardUndoRouting answers the per-window text
manager while any NSText is first responder, so a search-field typo
never crosses a board step.
