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.

2026-07-30 design pass (with the user), superseding the 2026-07-27
two-app split and the 2026-07-29 App Group ruling. Rulings:
- One Mac App Store app (dev.rzen.indie.Kanban, free, 2.0 updates the
existing record); Lanework Pro = auto-renewable subscription (StoreKit
2) unlocking the git tier; libgit2 compiles in dormant. The KanbanPro
target, module-alias tests, verify-editions, UTI/About/Types twins all
retire. Teams stays deferred — probably a separate app, and never on a
shared app group.
- No grandfathering: 1.x's free git users get the inert-.git posture;
unsubscribed and lapsed are one state — histories freeze, resume on
subscribe via the committer's catch-up commit.
- Entitlement = local read of StoreKit's signed transaction store at
board-session composition; never a network call on the open path;
subscribe effective at next open (purchase flow offers reopen); lapse
never interrupts an open session; expiry-while-offline with auto-renew
on holds in grace until a real refresh.
- App Group removed wholesale: registry, clipboard staging, template
store, defaults return to ordinary Application Support; grant slots
collapse to one bookmark, open-now to one flag; freshness stamp,
pid-liveness line, group-id provisioning risk all dissolve.
- Quiet signposts carry over; Settings gains the Pro section (subscribe/
manage/restore) as the third named Pro surface.
12-editions.md rewritten as the tiers doc; edition vocabulary swept to
tiers across 00-13, README, WISHLIST.

2026-07-30 findings-resolution ruling (Redesign card d40bfac1): Finder's
⌥⌘⌫ answered disk-space pressure boards don't have, and it was the one
gesture reaching unrecoverable straight from the board. The delete
vocabulary is now purely staged: board → trash, trash → permanent
(confirmed on no-git boards), Empty Trash for bulk. Docs drop the File
menu row, both ⌥-alternate context rows, and the VO custom action; code
removal rides the session's realign card.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Designed with the user 2026-07-29, closing Redesign card 82e2de6c (both halves). The card window recomposes as three componentized panes — body, comments, attributes — with a layout option (side-by-side default, body-over-comments for narrow displays; app-wide) and the thread visible through body Edit in both mounts. The column auto-shows when the thread is non-empty; sort direction flips at the header; the composer sits at the newest end. The composer edits comments/.draft/ — the user's idea, replacing any app-side draft store: one draft per card, ordinary comment schema with attachments, excluded from the thread, riding git/copies/trash, joining the claimed names; slow save cadence composing "Draft comment on 'X'"; posting renames to a fresh UUID and restamps created/modified in one bracket. Inline edits are body-edit sessions in miniature; no prompts anywhere. All editions ship comments — only tracker sync is Teams (matrix updated). A11y shapes in 10; menu, grammar, context-menu, and configuration rows in 11.
Board: Redesign card 82e2de6c → Resolved; Implementation card "Build comments" filed on Backlog (post-2.0).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Two stale rows left by the trash rewrites: the ⌫ grammar row now names Delete staged by place instead of the retired tombstone model, and Select All carries 04's container-boundary rule.
Board: Minor card cb3bc015 → Resolved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
10's inventory claim was right; 11 gains the rows Finder-style — hold ⌥ and Delete becomes Delete Immediately, surfacing as its own VO custom action per 10's cut. The trash needs no alternate since its Delete is already permanent.
Board: Minor card a69e5985 → Resolved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The 2026-07-29 lanes-trash-too ruling never swept the docs last touched 07-28. 11 ▸ Delete drops "lanes delete physically" for the card-or-lane move (freight-counting confirms in the trash); Delete Immediately widens to any card or lane selection; 06's recoverability exception covers both kinds and drops the retired 13-native-undo citation; 07 reads card and lane deletes; 02's welcome-counts exclusion restates as items in .trash/ (trashed lane subtracts from the lane count, its nested cards from the card count — the sibling Minor's ruling folded in). Context-menu row "Trash cards" renamed "Trash selection" on the same basis.
Board: Contradictions card 89a625bf + Minor card 488dc2c2 → Resolved.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
The tombstone model is retired wholesale: deletion is a move into the reserved
<root>/.trash/, always entering at the top (rank minting — no deleted: key, no
timestamp sort), with modified stamped for the future age-based purge. Lanes
are never trashed — lane delete is physical, native undo in-session the net.
Put Back is gone: restore is drag-out or cut+paste (⌘X now enabled in the
trash as the keyboard restore path). Trash cards are ordinary cards — search,
selection, clipboard, and rendering uniform — and one container boundary
replaces the effective-liveness, ancestor-walk, and kind-homogeneity machinery
across 02 and 04. Delete stages by place (board moves, trash deletes
permanently under the recoverability confirm); legacy deleted: keys migrate
without destroying (cards relocate, lanes return live, notices). Templates
exclude .trash; Duplicate carries it; the agent guide teaches delete-as-move.
Materialized reserved lanes are named as a pattern — .archive is WISHLIST #8,
and the backed-out release-presentation question is marked open in 03.
Ruling: Redesign board Resolved card e8f1a6c2; 19 mooted tombstone-era rulings
moved to the board's new Mooted lane.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Rulings written in place: the drop settle yields to the system drag session
(fly-to-slot deferred to WISHLIST #7) and the held proposal's home is the
app-wide DragSession — rendering the arrangement means rendering the card at
release (03, 02); folder drops refuse at hover with loss-row reporting, created
cards land positionally, N shadows, header resolves topmost, shadow-only
feedback (04); the banner vocabulary gains the warning-tone loss row class
(02); all user-initiated creation clears the search (04); loose files beside a
card's index.md relocate into attachments/ with notice — files-only carve-out,
paste normalizes at the boundary, the agent guide teaches it (01, 04, 08);
dropping a card on the shown trash deletes it, shadow pinned topmost (04);
query-emptied lanes keep their slot, the out-transition stays reachable, an
open rename survives the filter, pasteboard staleness accepted (04).
The face carousel does not carry over: the pathfinder's selection-keyed dual
presentation proved undesirable — one presentation per card, selection changes
styling never geometry; the attachment chip and the card window are the whole
media story (03, 01, 10, 11; the same-day carousel settlements superseded on
their Resolved cards).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
Edition split follow-through: 12-editions.md and 13-native-undo.md join the
corpus; git-era docs (06, 07) are Pro-scoped and cross-references realigned.
Resolution session rulings written in place: caret chords yield to any focused
text control (04, 11); the drop settle holds its proposal as overlay state and
02 gains the overlays family; Duplicate gets the save-panel fallback and a
cancellable copy walk (03); Finder open is a standard document open (02);
failed first opens record before loading with the folder name provisional (02);
trash pointer ranges skip by kind, full-height marquee surface, Select All by
kind, rows-only trashed universe (02, 04); Empty Trash counts entries (03);
create handoff reads as one arrival (02); range-anchor lifecycle, board-
background click grammar, jump landing cards, lane-domain shift-arrows (04);
Reduce Motion restated per voice (10).
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01CqjXB7ASoWtbyoGod68k97
- 02: welcome counts are live items only; failed first opens still record;
duplicate-identity registry records merge silently (newest wins);
BoardStore's FolderWatcher pointer reads "below"
- 11: lane-header new-card button inventoried (click names its target lane,
overriding 04's ⌘N rule — cross-referenced there); attachments quiet-add
affordance listed as a twin; Undo/Redo and Pull/Push rows gain the
abnormal-state pause, read-only lock, and unresolvable-remote conditions;
welcome scope added to Reveal in Finder
- 03/11: one lane context menu (header or empty space) with the full
inventory, replacing the split rows
- 09: instantiated boards are never in git mode — actual mode follows
detection at the destination (repo-nested possible)
- 08: the app never writes an existing CLAUDE.user.md; one-time rescue
creation stated as the exception
- README: pathfinder path corrected to ../../Kanban

Show Trash's ⇧⌘T collided with the Show Tab Bar item macOS injects into
multi-window apps. Settled: tabbing is kept as a system affordance (each
tab a full board window, per-board frames applying when standalone) and
Show Trash ships with no default chord, assignable via the remap path.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
The field's exits were commit-only, silently diverging from the board
rename's Escape-abandons rule, and Escape was ambiguous with the body in
Edit mode. Settled: Escape reverts to the on-disk title and focuses the
body; the collision resolves by focus per 06's first-responder routing.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
10 promised toggleable-without-pointer, 11's normative inventory had the
toggle as pointer-only, and 02's lock disabled it "via menu validation"
with no menu item to validate. Settled: checkboxes and links are real
controls in the focus/accessibility tree — FKA + Space and VO-Space toggle
them; in-content controls are content, not commands, so 04's menu-item
contract and 11's existence rule scope to commands; under the read-only
lock the controls disable in place.
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Contradictions: v1 gains a minimal Settings pane (⌘,) housing the
restore-at-launch toggle; Window ▸ Welcome to Lanework inventoried in 11.
Gaps: close/quit waits for in-flight bracketed and copy-shaped operations;
pull extends the Edit-session treatment to open raw-source buffers
(signpost + last-writer-wins Apply); File ▸ Duplicate keeps tombstones
(01's "as-is" softened to per-flow exclusions). Minor: Undo routing
promoted to a real heading in 06; 11's dead "10 ▸ Actions" citation
repointed. m3 watcher findings: root-gone cancels armed debounced
delivery; mid-bracket root changes owned by the root-change path;
.git filtered at any depth; banked mid-bracket reconciles and the
200 ms debounce ratified.
- 10 cites 11 for Add Attachment and the lane-width menu items
- 04 uses ⌘/⇧ symbols for click modifiers; card moves scoped to the
⌥⌘ chord; ../WISHLIST.md path fixed
- 03 says stepper (plus the menu pair) in the editing-surfaces table
- 06 says one commit per debounce window
- 03/10 Reduce Motion lists aligned at five items; rubber-band
disambiguated as the lane-resize feedback
- 11 requires the trash shown for Empty Trash
- 02 rewords and-peers
Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01HJ7PhFNmQ19bvy9RMD6GSb
Resolves the contract-vs-practice contradiction: 04/10/11 now state the
menu home is what makes every board function keyboard-reachable and
remappable; 11's no-default rows are deliberate, not violations.
