# Project State

## Project Reference

See: .planning/PROJECT.md (updated 2026-03-31)

**Core value:** An IT pro can go from zero to a deployable rclone setup in minutes — without needing to know rclone's config syntax or PowerShell deployment conventions.
**Current focus:** v1.2 — UI Polish & Clarity (Phase 8: Theme Foundation next)

## Current Position

Phase: 8 of 11 (Theme Foundation) — COMPLETE
Plan: 08-02 (complete)
Status: Phase 8 complete, ready for Phase 9
Last activity: 2026-04-01 — Phase 8 complete (THEME-01, THEME-02 satisfied)

Progress: [█████░░░░░] 50% (v1.2)

## Accumulated Context

### Decisions

Decisions are logged in PROJECT.md Key Decisions table.
Recent decisions affecting current work:

- v1.2 roadmap: Zero new runtime dependencies — Tailwind v4 @theme + CSS custom properties only
- v1.2 roadmap: Bottom-up migration order (tokens -> primitives -> migration -> content -> polish)
- v1.2 roadmap: ThemeToggle via DOM class toggle, not React Context (avoids re-render cascade)
- [Phase 08-01]: Two-layer CSS token pattern: @theme var() references + @layer base :root/.dark raw values — required for .dark cascade in Tailwind v4
- [Phase 08-01]: vi.stubGlobal for localStorage/matchMedia in tests — Node v25 experimental WebStorage breaks standard Storage API in jsdom environment
- [Phase 08-02]: Mechanical migration only — zero DOM structure changes, only className strings replaced
- [Phase 08-02]: Post-migration grep check is mandatory — replace_all can miss occurrences in dual-branch components with identical className strings
- [Phase 08-02]: User visually confirmed light/dark theme renders correctly across all 4 wizard steps — THEME-01 and THEME-02 complete
- [Phase 09-02]: Label text inside button element (not adjacent) preserves test selector compatibility: textContent includes step name
- [Phase 09-02]: Pre-existing TextFieldMD3.test.tsx failure scoped out — component not yet built, belongs to future plan
- [Phase 09-md3-components]: TextFieldMD3 uses CSS-only floating label via peer-[:not(:placeholder-shown)] without JS state
- [Phase 09-md3-components]: DEBT-01 fix: tooltip buttons use aria-label directly; RemoteConfigStep.test updated with { selector: 'input' } to prevent aria-label/label ambiguity

### Pending Todos

None yet.

### Blockers/Concerns

- 131 test selectors could break during component restyling — one-component-at-a-time discipline required (ongoing, Phase 9+)
