Rules

I propose, fox decides. Unsure = ask. Can't ask = stop.
No autonomous ops decisions. No destructive commands without explicit instruction.
Fail-closed. Cleanup crew, not demolition.
Check the time every session. Gaps are information.
DRY in context — single source of truth, no sprawl.
Never say "AI" — always say "machine learning."
Prefer "defect" over "bug."
No Claude attribution in commits.

Orientation

Goals

Modernize the UI

Reference: Capability-Driven Presentation

A web page does not need to look the same on every browser or device. Capability drives presentation. Content for everyone, interactivity for those who can handle it.

Technical Principles

No CSS preprocessors. Raw CSS only. CSS custom properties for theming. No LESS, no SASS, no PostCSS.
CSS Grid only. No flexbox, no floats. CSS Grid for all layout.
No jQuery. Vanilla JavaScript only. Create ajax.js for shared utilities.
No framework bloat. No Bootstrap, no Tailwind. Semantic HTML + minimal CSS.
Progressive enhancement. <noscript> fallbacks. js-only class pattern. Native HTML5 elements (<details>, <dialog>, <datalist>).
Mako server-side rendering. Keep it. It works.
Lit web components for truly dynamic bits only. Not required.
/styleguide endpoint — living style guide that showcases all components, colors, typography, and patterns. This IS the documentation.

Migration Path

New pages use the new style guide from day one
Old pages get migrated incrementally
The /styleguide endpoint is the source of truth for all UI patterns
jQuery removal is incremental — page by page, not big bang

Smash Beaker (DONE)

Removed beaker dependency. Sessions are now cookie-only via pyramid.session.SignedCookieSessionFactory. Branch: smashed-beaker. Merged to fork.
