STATUS: 🟢 STABLE — DESIGN CONTEXT & DISTILL COMPLETE

PROGRESS: Established design context (Technical, Precise, Dark-Bold aesthetic), created .impeccable.md, and executed distill pass to remove AdminOverlay complexity and inject color boldness. Build passes with zero errors.

Frontend Audit (Post v1.10.11) - COMPLETED

1. Accessibility Improvements

• ✅ Added focus-visible indicators to ALL interactive elements (BottomNav, AdminOverlay, CreateUserModal)
• ✅ Created CreateUserModal.tsx with accessible form (replaces window.prompt)
• ✅ Inline field validation with error messages
• ✅ Added aria-labels to icon buttons for screen readers

2. Color System Refactoring

• ✅ Moved primary color from hard-coded #3b82f6 to CSS variable --primary
• ✅ Updated tailwind.config.ts and globals.css for token consistency
• ✅ Added --primary-foreground token

3. Performance & Dependencies

• ✅ Removed bootstrap-icons (duplicate with lucide-react)
• ✅ Updated package.json dependencies

4. Design Refinements

• ✅ Reduced backdrop-blur overuse: removed from overlay scrim, reduced on StatCard
• ✅ Improved AdminOverlay responsive design (max-w-md responsive variants)
• ✅ Enhanced form UX with loading states and clear error messages

WHAT THE NEXT AI MUST DO

1. Final Testing Before Release

• Test ConfirmationModal in browser:
  • Delete user: verify modal appears, handles deletion, updates list
  • Delete category: test both low-risk and high-risk (100+ items) flows
  • Verify keyboard accessibility (Esc closes, Enter submits if valid)
  • Test confirmation text input validation for high-risk operations
• Test CreateUserModal and form validation
• Verify mobile (320px+) responsive behavior
• Local dev: npm run build && npm run dev

2. Optional Enhancements (Post-Release)

• P2: /optimize — Lazy-load tesseract.js (500KB) only when OCR mode activated
• P3: Add light mode support (extend tailwind, create toggle in PageShell)

3. Version & Release

• Run final /audit to confirm 17+/20 score
• Update VERSION.json (currently v1.10.11, ready for v1.10.12)
• Use save-version to create bundle and deploy
• Current production bundle: aInventory-PROD-v1.10.11.zip (next: v1.10.12)
