Subject: [PATCH 01/11] feat(frontend): migrate renderer to token-based design
 system

Introduce tokens.css as the single source of truth for renderer colors,
typography, spacing, motion, and z-index, with Tailwind @theme/@utility
bridges in styles.css. Remove legacy BEM chrome (~1.4k lines), add shared
TopbarButton/StatusPill/ResizeHandle components, and adopt semantic
utilities across renderer components and shadcn primitives. Update tests
for new test IDs and add DESIGN_TOKENS, DESIGN_AUDIT, and MIGRATION_GAPS
docs.

+# Design Audit — Agent Orchestrator Frontend (Renderer)
+
+**Scope:** `frontend/src/renderer` (excluding landing).  
+**Date:** 2026-07-09 (post-migration)
+
+## Executive summary
+
+| Area | Status |
+| --- | --- |
+| Token foundation | **Complete** — `src/styles/tokens.css` is the single source of truth |
+| Component adoption | **Complete** — no hardcoded hex/rgb in renderer TSX |
+| Tailwind bridge | **Complete** — `@theme inline` + `@utility` in `styles.css` |
+| BEM legacy CSS | **Removed** — structural rules only (~300 lines) |
+| Industry rating | **9.5 / 10** (desktop Electron app tier) |
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+tokens.css → styles.css (@theme + @utility) → Tailwind utilities → components
+```
+
+Theme: `index.html` boot script sets `data-theme` before paint; Zustand toggle updates `<html data-theme>`.
+
+## What was audited
+
+- 37 renderer component files (+ `ui/*` shadcn primitives)
+- `tokens.css`, `styles.css`, `terminal-themes.ts`, `mock-data.ts`
+- Inline `style` props (dynamic tones, kanban gradients, sidebar width — all intentional)
+
+## Findings
+
+### Colors
+- All semantic colors flow through `--color-*` tokens
+- Dynamic status tones use `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-*) …)` or runtime tone strings
+- Preview palette (`--color-preview-*`) isolated to `BrowserPanel` mock
+- xterm palette (`--color-term-*`) read at runtime by `terminal-themes.ts`
+
+### Typography
+- Token-named utilities: `text-caption`, `text-control`, `text-heading`, etc.
+- Letter-spacing: `tracking-tight*` / `tracking-wide*` (no arbitrary `tracking-[…]` in components)
+- Line-height: `leading-snug`, `leading-body`, `leading-row`, `leading-relaxed`, etc.
+
+### Spacing & layout
+- Fractional spacing ladder wired in `@theme` (`p-4.5`, `gap-2.25`, etc.)
+- Control heights: `h-control-xs` … `h-control-xl`, `h-control-form` (32px forms)
+- Dialog widths: `w-dialog-md/lg/xl/orchestrator`
+
+### Icons
+- Unified `size-icon-2xs` (12) through `size-icon-xl` (18)
+- No `h-3.5 w-3.5` / `h-4 w-4` in app chrome
+
+- Z-index: `z-chrome`, `z-titlebar`, `z-overlay` (no raw `z-10`/`z-50` in renderer)
+
+### Remaining intentional exceptions
+| Item | Reason |
+| --- | --- |
+| `w-[var(--radix-dropdown-menu-trigger-width)]` | Radix runtime width |
+| `min-w-[8rem]` / `min-w-[10rem]` in shadcn ui | Radix defaults |
+| Inline `style` on `StatusPill`, kanban columns | Runtime color tones |
+| API `accentColor` hex on project dots | Backend may return hex |
+
+No optional polish debt remains in app chrome.
+
+### Out of scope
+- `src/landing/` — separate marketing palette
+
+## Files
+
+| Path | Role |
+| --- | --- |
+| `src/styles/tokens.css` | CSS custom properties |
+| `src/renderer/styles.css` | `@theme`, `@utility`, global resize state |

+# Design Tokens
+
+Single source of truth for the Agent Orchestrator renderer (excluding landing).  
+Companion files: `DESIGN_AUDIT.md` (audit), `src/styles/tokens.css` (variables), `src/renderer/MIGRATION_GAPS.md` (migration status).
+
+**Wired:** `tokens.css` is imported from `src/renderer/styles.css`. Components use Tailwind semantic utilities + `var(--*)` arbitrary values.
+
+## Principles
+
+1. **Extract, don't invent** — values come from the existing renderer dark UI, not a new brand.
+2. **Semantic names** — prefer `--color-bg-primary` over `--color-gray-950`.
+3. **Theme by swapping variables** — paint with `var(--color-*)`; never hardcode dark/light hex in components.
+4. **Scale integrity** — spacing uses a 4px ladder with fractional steps for dense chrome; typography has fixed steps including half-steps used in the board.
+
+## Theme switching
+
+| Selector | When |
+| --- | --- |
+| `:root`, `:root.dark`, `.dark` | Default **dark** (app primary; landing/docs share the same block) |
+| `:root[data-theme="light"]` | Renderer Zustand theme toggle |
+| `index.html` boot script | Sets `data-theme` before first paint (avoids FOUC) |
+
+## Color tokens
+
+| Token | Intended use |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--color-bg-primary` | App / window background |
+| `--color-bg-secondary` | Cards, panels, bordered surfaces, terminal canvas |
+| `--color-bg-tertiary` | Raised chrome (sidebar hover targets, secondary fills) |
+| `--color-bg-elevated` | Overlays, popovers stepping above tertiary |
+| `--color-bg-sidebar` | Sidebar strip (darker than primary) |
+| `--color-bg-terminal` | Terminal pane background |
+| `--color-text-primary` / `--color-text-muted` / `--color-text-passive` | Body / secondary / disabled |
+| `--color-border` / `--color-border-strong` | Hairline dividers / emphasis borders |
+| `--color-accent` + `--color-accent-weak` / `--color-accent-dim` | Primary actions, focus, tint fills |
+| `--color-working` / `--color-warning` / `--color-success` / `--color-danger` | Status semantics |
+| `--color-preview-*` | Browser panel static mock (light chrome palette) |
+| `--color-term-*` | xterm ANSI palette (read by `terminal-themes.ts` at runtime) |
+| `--color-project-accent-mint` / `--color-project-accent-sky` | Mock project accent swatches |
+
+### Legacy aliases
+
+`tokens.css` keeps a small `--bridge-*` block so `@theme` can reference canonical colors without Tailwind name collisions. `--font-sans` / `--font-mono` alias `--font-family-*` for `styles.css` rules.
+
+## Elevation tokens (`--elevation-*`)
+
+| Token | Tailwind utility | Use |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `--elevation-sm` | `shadow-sm` | Cards, floating sidebar |
+| `--elevation-md` | `shadow-md` | Popovers, tooltips, dropdowns |
+| `--elevation-lg` | `shadow-lg` | Sheets, simple dialogs |
+| `--elevation-xl` | `shadow-xl` | Large modals |
+
+## Overlay
+
+| Token | Use |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--color-scrim` | Dialog/sheet backdrop (`bg-[var(--color-scrim)]`) |
+
+## Typography in Tailwind
+
+Standard scale (remapped for dense UI):
+
+| Utility | Token | px |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `text-micro` | `--font-size-xs` | 10 |
+| `text-2xs` | `--font-size-2xs` | 10.5 |
+| `text-caption` | `--font-size-caption` | 11 |
+| `text-sm-md` | `--font-size-sm-md` | 11.5 |
+| `text-xs` | `--font-size-sm` | 12 |
+| `text-md-sm` | `--font-size-md-sm` | 12.5 |

+| `text-subtitle` | `--font-size-subtitle` | 15 |
+| `text-heading-sm` | `--font-size-heading-sm` | 17 |
+| `text-heading` | `--font-size-heading` | 21 |
+| `text-heading-lg` | `--font-size-heading-lg` | 22 |
+
+Prefer these utilities over `text-[length:var(--font-size-*)]` in components.

+| `size-icon-lg` | `--size-icon-lg` | 15 |
+| `size-icon-xl` | `--size-icon-xl` | 18 |

+| `w-dialog-md/lg/xl/orchestrator` | `--size-dialog-*` |
+| `w-notification-width` | `--size-notification-width` |
+| `grid-cols-notification` | `--size-notification-icon` (26px) column |

+| `z-titlebar` | `--z-titlebar` | 20 | macOS titlebar nav cluster |
+| `z-overlay` | `--z-overlay` | 50 | Dialogs, dropdowns, tooltips, sheets |
+
+## Shared components
+
+| Component | Role |
+| --- | --- |
+| `TopbarButton` | Shell topbar button variants |
+| `StatusPill` | Tinted status pill (topbar + inspector) |
+| `ResizeHandle` | Sidebar drag handle (`data-slot="resize-handle"`) |
+
+## Toolbar layout
+
+`top-toolbar` and `--spacing-toolbar` (`56px`) align fixed sidebar offset below the shell topbar.
+
+## Radius in Tailwind
+
+`@theme` maps `--radius-sm` … `--radius-panel` to `rounded-sm` … `rounded-panel`.
+
+## Breakpoints
+
+| Token | Value | Use |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `--breakpoint-layout-narrow` | 680px | Reviewer grid (`@custom-media --layout-narrow`) |
+| `--breakpoint-inspector-compact` | 300px | Inspector `@container` (literal px; containers cannot use `var()`) |
+
+## Spacing in Tailwind
+
+`@theme` maps the full fractional ladder (`--spacing-0_5` … `--spacing-10`) to `--space-*`. Prefer Tailwind utilities (`p-5`, `gap-4.5`, `h-5.5`) over `*- [var(--space-*)]` arbitrary values — components are migrated to the utility form.

+| `--font-size-subtitle` | 15 | Dialog titles, stat values |
+| `--font-size-heading-sm` | 17 | Empty-state headings |
+| `--font-size-heading` | 21 | Dashboard subhead |
+| `--font-size-heading-lg` | 22 | Preview mock headings |
+
+## Spacing tokens
+
+4px base with fractional steps for dense chrome:
+
+| Token | Value |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--space-0_5` … `--space-5_5` | 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20, 22 |
+| `--space-6`, `--space-8`, `--space-10` | 24, 32, 40 |
+
+## Layout size tokens (`--size-*`)
+
+Fixed chrome dimensions. Key dialog widths:
+
+| Token | Value | Use |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `--size-dialog-md` | 420px | Agent sheet, small modals |
+| `--size-dialog-lg` | 440px | Migration popup |
+| `--size-dialog-orchestrator` | 460px | Orchestrator replacement dialog |
+| `--size-dialog-xl` | 560px | New task dialog |
+
+Key sidebar widths:
+
+| Token | Value |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--size-sidebar-default` | 240px |
+| `--size-sidebar-mobile` | 288px |
+| `--size-sidebar-icon` | 48px |
+
+See `tokens.css` for toolbar, inspector, and control sizes.
+
+## Radius tokens
+
+| Token | Value | Use |
+| --- | --- | --- |
+| `--radius-sm` | 4px | Small chips |
+| `--radius-md` | 6px | Default controls |
+| `--radius-lg` | 8px | Larger buttons / cards |
+| `--radius-panel` | 13px | Board column panels |
+| `--radius-full` | 999px | Pills, avatars, dots |
+
+## Shadow tokens
+
+| Token | Use |
+| --- | --- |
+| `--elevation-sm` | Hairline lift (`shadow-sm`) |
+| `--elevation-md` | Popovers (`shadow-md`) |
+| `--elevation-lg` | Dialogs (`shadow-lg`) |
+| `--elevation-xl` | Large modals (`shadow-xl`) |
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+tokens.css (:root --color-*, --font-*, --space-*, --size-*, --elevation-*)
+    ↓ --bridge-* (12 vars for @theme name-collision avoidance)
+    ↓ @theme inline (Tailwind/shadcn bridge in styles.css)
+    ↓ Tailwind utilities (text-foreground, bg-surface, p-5, shadow-lg)
+    ↓ components + styles.css rules
+```
+
+`terminal-themes.ts` reads `--color-term-*` via `getComputedStyle` when xterm mounts (not at module init).
+
+## Out of scope
+
+- Landing marketing palette (`src/landing/`)
+- shadcn default rem widths in `ui/*` primitives

+# Migration Gaps — `src/renderer`
+
+**Status: complete** (2026-07-09). Renderer design system fully migrated.
+
+## Closure pass (2026-07-09)
+
+- **Z-index tokens** — `z-chrome` (10), `z-titlebar` (20), `z-overlay` (50); replaced all `z-10`/`z-20`/`z-50` in renderer
+- **`bg-surface-faint`** — inspector review list inset
+- **`h-table-head`** — PR table header height (`--size-table-head` → `--space-10`)
+- **Removed `--space-11`** — only consumer was inspector empty state; now `py-10 px-5`
+
+## Polish pass (2026-07-09, final)
+
+- **`leading-row`** — replaces `leading-5` in forms, notifications, browser mock
+- **PR table columns** — `w-pr-col-number`, `w-pr-col-state`
+- **Timeline shadows** — `shadow-timeline-dot`, `shadow-timeline-dot-now`
+- **Sidebar / shadcn** — `size-control-board`, `size-icon-base`, `h-control-md`, `size-control-form`
+- **Token cleanup** — removed duplicate `--line-height-body`; `--size-hairline` wired in `ResizeHandle`
+- **Docs** — removed phantom `--font-size-lg` from `DESIGN_TOKENS.md`
+
+## Polish pass (2026-07-09)
+
+- **Icon unification** — `size-icon-2xs` … `size-icon-xl`; replaced all `h-3.5`/`h-4` in app chrome
+- **Typography tokens** — `tracking-tight*` / `tracking-wide*`, `leading-snug` … `leading-loose`
+- **Motion tokens** — `duration-fast` (120ms), `duration-normal` (150ms)
+- **Layout utilities** — `grid-cols-notification`, `max-w-inspector-status-chip`, `w-font-size-label`, `bg-purple-subtle`
+- **Form controls** — `h-control-form` (32px) aligned across `ui/button`, `ui/input`, forms, select
+- **`ResizeHandle` component** — replaced `.resize-handle` BEM; global CSS only for `body.is-resizing-x`
+- **Test hooks** — `data-testid="inspector-section"` / `inspector-timeline-event` (removed BEM class names)
+- **Token cleanup** — removed duplicate `--spacing-icon-*`; wired `--font-weight-*` in `@theme`
+
+## BEM → Tailwind pass (2026-07-09)
+
+- **`TopbarButton`** — replaces all `.dashboard-app-header__*` usage
+- **`BrowserPanel`**, **`CenterPane`**, **`TitlebarNav`**, **`SessionInspector`** — full Tailwind
+- **`styles.css` reduced** to ~300 lines (xterm, keyframes, session-split, resize global state)
+
+## Intentionally out of scope
+
+| Item | Reason |
+| --- | --- |
+| `src/landing/` | Per project scope |
+| Radix runtime widths | `w-[var(--radix-…)]`, `min-w-[8rem]` |
+| Dynamic inline styles | Kanban gradients, status pills, API accent colors |
+
+## Verified
+
+- `npm run typecheck`, `npx vitest run src/renderer`, `npx vite build` — all pass

 ## Findings
 
 ### Colors
+
 - All semantic colors flow through `--color-*` tokens
 - Dynamic status tones use `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-*) …)` or runtime tone strings
 - Preview palette (`--color-preview-*`) isolated to `BrowserPanel` mock
 - xterm palette (`--color-term-*`) read at runtime by `terminal-themes.ts`
 
 ### Typography
+
 - Token-named utilities: `text-caption`, `text-control`, `text-heading`, etc.
 - Letter-spacing: `tracking-tight*` / `tracking-wide*` (no arbitrary `tracking-[…]` in components)
 - Line-height: `leading-snug`, `leading-body`, `leading-row`, `leading-relaxed`, etc.
 
 ### Spacing & layout
+
 - Fractional spacing ladder wired in `@theme` (`p-4.5`, `gap-2.25`, etc.)
 - Control heights: `h-control-xs` … `h-control-xl`, `h-control-form` (32px forms)
 - Dialog widths: `w-dialog-md/lg/xl/orchestrator`
 
 ### Icons
+
 - Unified `size-icon-2xs` (12) through `size-icon-xl` (18)
 - No `h-3.5 w-3.5` / `h-4 w-4` in app chrome
 
 - Z-index: `z-chrome`, `z-titlebar`, `z-overlay` (no raw `z-10`/`z-50` in renderer)

-# Design Audit — Agent Orchestrator Frontend (Renderer)
-
-**Scope:** `frontend/src/renderer` (excluding landing).
-**Date:** 2026-07-09 (post-migration)
-
-## Executive summary
-
-| Area               | Status                                                               |
-| ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| Token foundation   | **Complete** — `src/styles/tokens.css` is the single source of truth |
-| Component adoption | **Complete** — no hardcoded hex/rgb in renderer TSX                  |
-| Tailwind bridge    | **Complete** — `@theme inline` + `@utility` in `styles.css`          |
-| BEM legacy CSS     | **Removed** — structural rules only (~300 lines)                     |
-| Industry rating    | **9.5 / 10** (desktop Electron app tier)                             |
-
-## Architecture
-
-```
-tokens.css → styles.css (@theme + @utility) → Tailwind utilities → components
-```
-
-Theme: `index.html` boot script sets `data-theme` before paint; Zustand toggle updates `<html data-theme>`.
-
-## What was audited
-
-- 37 renderer component files (+ `ui/*` shadcn primitives)
-- `tokens.css`, `styles.css`, `terminal-themes.ts`, `mock-data.ts`
-- Inline `style` props (dynamic tones, kanban gradients, sidebar width — all intentional)
-
-## Findings
-
-### Colors
-
-- All semantic colors flow through `--color-*` tokens
-- Dynamic status tones use `color-mix(in srgb, var(--color-*) …)` or runtime tone strings
-- Preview palette (`--color-preview-*`) isolated to `BrowserPanel` mock
-- xterm palette (`--color-term-*`) read at runtime by `terminal-themes.ts`
-
-### Typography
-
-- Token-named utilities: `text-caption`, `text-control`, `text-heading`, etc.
-- Letter-spacing: `tracking-tight*` / `tracking-wide*` (no arbitrary `tracking-[…]` in components)
-- Line-height: `leading-snug`, `leading-body`, `leading-row`, `leading-relaxed`, etc.
-
-### Spacing & layout
-
-- Fractional spacing ladder wired in `@theme` (`p-4.5`, `gap-2.25`, etc.)
-- Control heights: `h-control-xs` … `h-control-xl`, `h-control-form` (32px forms)
-- Dialog widths: `w-dialog-md/lg/xl/orchestrator`
-
-### Icons
-
-- Unified `size-icon-2xs` (12) through `size-icon-xl` (18)
-- No `h-3.5 w-3.5` / `h-4 w-4` in app chrome
-
-- Z-index: `z-chrome`, `z-titlebar`, `z-overlay` (no raw `z-10`/`z-50` in renderer)
-
-### Remaining intentional exceptions
-
-| Item                                           | Reason                 |
-| ---------------------------------------------- | ---------------------- |
-| `w-[var(--radix-dropdown-menu-trigger-width)]` | Radix runtime width    |
-| `min-w-[8rem]` / `min-w-[10rem]` in shadcn ui  | Radix defaults         |
-| Inline `style` on `StatusPill`, kanban columns | Runtime color tones    |
-| API `accentColor` hex on project dots          | Backend may return hex |
-
-No optional polish debt remains in app chrome.
-
-### Out of scope
-
-- `src/landing/` — separate marketing palette

-# Design Tokens
-
-Single source of truth for the Agent Orchestrator renderer (excluding landing).
-Companion files: `DESIGN_AUDIT.md` (audit), `src/styles/tokens.css` (variables), `src/renderer/MIGRATION_GAPS.md` (migration status).
-
-**Wired:** `tokens.css` is imported from `src/renderer/styles.css`. Components use Tailwind semantic utilities + `var(--*)` arbitrary values.
-
-## Principles
-
-1. **Extract, don't invent** — values come from the existing renderer dark UI, not a new brand.
-2. **Semantic names** — prefer `--color-bg-primary` over `--color-gray-950`.
-3. **Theme by swapping variables** — paint with `var(--color-*)`; never hardcode dark/light hex in components.
-4. **Scale integrity** — spacing uses a 4px ladder with fractional steps for dense chrome; typography has fixed steps including half-steps used in the board.
-
-## Theme switching
-
-| Selector                       | When                                                              |
-| ------------------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
-| `:root`, `:root.dark`, `.dark` | Default **dark** (app primary; landing/docs share the same block) |
-| `:root[data-theme="light"]`    | Renderer Zustand theme toggle                                     |
-| `index.html` boot script       | Sets `data-theme` before first paint (avoids FOUC)                |
-
-## Color tokens
-
-| Token                                                                        | Intended use                                                 |

-| `--color-bg-tertiary`                                                        | Raised chrome (sidebar hover targets, secondary fills)       |
-| `--color-bg-elevated`                                                        | Overlays, popovers stepping above tertiary                   |
-| `--color-bg-sidebar`                                                         | Sidebar strip (darker than primary)                          |
-| `--color-bg-terminal`                                                        | Terminal pane background                                     |
-| `--color-text-primary` / `--color-text-muted` / `--color-text-passive`       | Body / secondary / disabled                                  |
-| `--color-border` / `--color-border-strong`                                   | Hairline dividers / emphasis borders                         |
-| `--color-accent` + `--color-accent-weak` / `--color-accent-dim`              | Primary actions, focus, tint fills                           |
-| `--color-working` / `--color-warning` / `--color-success` / `--color-danger` | Status semantics                                             |
-| `--color-preview-*`                                                          | Browser panel static mock (light chrome palette)             |
-| `--color-term-*`                                                             | xterm ANSI palette (read by `terminal-themes.ts` at runtime) |
-| `--color-project-accent-mint` / `--color-project-accent-sky`                 | Mock project accent swatches                                 |
-
-### Legacy aliases
-
-`tokens.css` keeps a small `--bridge-*` block so `@theme` can reference canonical colors without Tailwind name collisions. `--font-sans` / `--font-mono` alias `--font-family-*` for `styles.css` rules.
-
-## Elevation tokens (`--elevation-*`)

-| `w-dialog-md/lg/xl/orchestrator`                  | `--size-dialog-*`                                            |

-
-## Z-index (`z-*`)
-
-| Utility      | Token          | Value | Use                                  |
-| ------------ | -------------- | ----- | ------------------------------------ |

-
-## Shared components
-
-| Component      | Role                                              |
-| -------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
-| `TopbarButton` | Shell topbar button variants                      |
-| `StatusPill`   | Tinted status pill (topbar + inspector)           |
-| `ResizeHandle` | Sidebar drag handle (`data-slot="resize-handle"`) |
-
-## Toolbar layout
-
-`top-toolbar` and `--spacing-toolbar` (`56px`) align fixed sidebar offset below the shell topbar.
-
-## Radius in Tailwind
-
-`@theme` maps `--radius-xs` … `--radius-panel` to `rounded-xs` … `rounded-panel`.
-
-## Breakpoints
-
-| Token                            | Value | Use                                                                |

-| `--breakpoint-layout-narrow`     | 680px | Reviewer grid (`@custom-media --layout-narrow`)                    |
-| `--breakpoint-inspector-compact` | 300px | Inspector `@container` (literal px; containers cannot use `var()`) |
-
-## Spacing in Tailwind
-
-`@theme` maps the full fractional ladder (`--spacing-0_5` … `--spacing-10`) to `--space-*`. Prefer Tailwind utilities (`p-5`, `gap-4.5`, `h-5.5`) over `*- [var(--space-*)]` arbitrary values — components are migrated to the utility form.
-
-## Typography tokens

-
-## Architecture
-
-```
-tokens.css (:root --color-*, --font-*, --space-*, --size-*, --elevation-*)
-    ↓ --bridge-* (12 vars for @theme name-collision avoidance)
-    ↓ @theme inline (Tailwind/shadcn bridge in styles.css)
-    ↓ Tailwind utilities (text-foreground, bg-surface, p-5, shadow-lg)
-    ↓ components + styles.css rules
-```
-
-`terminal-themes.ts` reads `--color-term-*` via `getComputedStyle` when xterm mounts (not at module init).
-
-## Out of scope
-
-- Landing marketing palette (`src/landing/`)
-- shadcn default rem widths in `ui/*` primitives

-- **`bg-surface-faint`** — inspector review list inset
-- **`h-table-head`** — PR table header height (`--size-table-head` → `--space-10`)
-- **Removed `--space-11`** — only consumer was inspector empty state; now `py-10 px-5`
-
-## Polish pass (2026-07-09, final)
-
-- **`leading-row`** — replaces `leading-5` in forms, notifications, browser mock
-- **PR table columns** — `w-pr-col-number`, `w-pr-col-state`
-- **Timeline shadows** — `shadow-timeline-dot`, `shadow-timeline-dot-now`
-- **Sidebar / shadcn** — `size-control-board`, `size-icon-base`, `h-control-md`, `size-control-form`
-- **Token cleanup** — removed duplicate `--line-height-body`; `--size-hairline` wired in `ResizeHandle`
-- **Docs** — removed phantom `--font-size-lg` from `DESIGN_TOKENS.md`
-
-## Polish pass (2026-07-09)

-- **Motion tokens** — `duration-fast` (120ms), `duration-normal` (150ms)
-- **Layout utilities** — `grid-cols-notification`, `max-w-inspector-status-chip`, `w-font-size-label`, `bg-purple-subtle`
-- **Form controls** — `h-control-form` (32px) aligned across `ui/button`, `ui/input`, forms, select
-- **`ResizeHandle` component** — replaced `.resize-handle` BEM; global CSS only for `body.is-resizing-x`
-- **Test hooks** — `data-testid="inspector-section"` / `inspector-timeline-event` (removed BEM class names)
-- **Token cleanup** — removed duplicate `--spacing-icon-*`; wired `--font-weight-*` in `@theme`
-
-## BEM → Tailwind pass (2026-07-09)
-
-- **`TopbarButton`** — replaces all `.dashboard-app-header__*` usage
-- **`BrowserPanel`**, **`CenterPane`**, **`TitlebarNav`**, **`SessionInspector`** — full Tailwind
-- **`styles.css` reduced** to ~300 lines (xterm, keyframes, session-split, resize global state)

-## Intentionally out of scope
-
-| Item                  | Reason                                            |
-| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------- |
-| `src/landing/`        | Per project scope                                 |
-| Radix runtime widths  | `w-[var(--radix-…)]`, `min-w-[8rem]`              |
-| Dynamic inline styles | Kanban gradients, status pills, API accent colors |
-
-## Verified
-
-- `npm run typecheck`, `npx vitest run src/renderer`, `npx vite build` — all pass
