+# Done
+
+- **What was built**: The watchOS "No Reminders" empty state no longer shows the
+  default "No reminders yet" caption. The caption now renders only when
+  `hasHidden` is true, keeping the "Nothing due right now" hidden-reminders
+  variant, and preserving the title and Refresh button. `SharedStrings.noRemindersYet`
+  and `Localizable.xcstrings` are untouched; the widget's usage still compiles.
+- **Commit SHA(s)**: `7c2dae19c13641152876f73d45b549be5b5cc420` (watch empty-state
+  change), `2b3386f7` (chore: remove DELETEME bootstrap marker). Both pushed.
+- **Verification**: `make format`, `make lint` (0 violations), `make watch-build`
+  (`** BUILD SUCCEEDED **`), `make watch-test` (`** TEST SUCCEEDED **`, watch
+  unit tests on Apple Watch Series 11 (46mm)). No new unit test required: recon
+  found no test anywhere references `noRemindersYet`, `nothingDueRightNow`,
+  "No reminders yet", `emptyStateTitle`, or `noRemindersState`.
+- **Reviewer findings**: The `reviewer` child timed out after 30 min in a
+  degenerate repetition loop; its partial output had no blockers ("The change is
+  correct. … default 'No reminders yet' caption is removed. Title and Refresh
+  button preserved."). The parent then completed the review pass itself:
+  verified `noRemindersState(hasHidden:)` (WatchReminderView.swift:227-238), the
+  `.empty(hasHidden)` call site (:104), that the watch view no longer references
+  `noRemindersYet`, and that `SingleThreadWidget/NextThingWidget.swift:126` still
+  uses both shared strings. No blockers; no nits requiring action. No files were
+  changed by the reviewer.
+- **Remaining manual items**: Visual check of the two watch previews
+  (`#Preview("No Reminders")`, `#Preview("Nothing Due")`) on-device/simulator;
+  `VStack(spacing: 6)` was left unchanged since the remaining title + Refresh
+  stack shows no obvious gap. Full `./scripts/test.sh` gate was intentionally not
+  run (SMALL task: targeted verify only).

+# Task
+
+Improve the watchOS "No Reminders" empty state (VAR-1133). Today the watch empty
+state renders three things stacked vertically:
+
+- the title "No Reminders"
+- a caption line that reads either "No reminders yet" (default) or
+  "Nothing due right now" (when reminders are hidden/skipped)
+- a "Refresh" button
+
+Remove the "No reminders yet" caption text from the watch screen. Keep the title
+and the Refresh button. Preserve the hidden-reminders variant ("Nothing due
+right now") unless removing the whole caption line is the cleaner, obviously
+intended reading — the ticket only names "No reminders yet", so the safest
+minimal change is to drop the default caption while keeping the "nothing due"
+message when reminders are hidden. Note that `SharedStrings.noRemindersYet` is
+also used by `SingleThreadWidget/NextThingWidget.swift`, so do not delete or
+change the shared string itself; only the watch view's usage of it.
+
+Verify the resulting watch empty-state layout still looks correct (spacing in
+the `VStack`), adjust spacing only if the removal leaves an obvious gap, and run
+the project gate (format, lint, relevant watch build/tests). Since this is a
+pure view-copy change, a new unit test is not required unless existing copy
+tests assert on the removed string.
+
+## Why SMALL
+
+A. Single view file (`SingleThreadWatch/WatchReminderView.swift`, one `VStack`
+in `noRemindersState`), no new pattern.
+B. No unknowns; the exact line and shared string usage are already located.
+C. No schema/migration.
+D. No new subsystem/shared-convention change; the shared localization resource
+is intentionally left untouched because the widget still uses it.
+E. No design decision or human sign-off.
+F. No new test surface — existing empty-state tests do not reference this string.
+
+## Key files
+
+- `SingleThreadWatch/WatchReminderView.swift` — `noRemindersState(hasHidden:)`
+  (~line 228) renders the title, the caption, and `refreshButton`.
+- `SingleThreadCore/Sources/SingleThreadCore/LocalizedString+Shared.swift` —
+  `SharedStrings.noRemindersYet` (~line 101) is shared with the widget; leave it.
+- `SingleThreadWidget/NextThingWidget.swift:~126` — other consumer of
+  `noRemindersYet`; must keep working.
+- `SingleThreadCore/Sources/SingleThreadCore/Resources/Localizable.xcstrings` —
+  "No reminders yet" entry stays because the widget still uses it.
+- `SingleThreadWatch/WatchReminderView.swift:436` — `#Preview("No Reminders")`
+  for manual visual check.
