Groundwork for a whole-app visual cohesion pass with Claude Design. Docs only, no code changes.

  • scratch/system-design/design-system.md: a components sheet written from a full audit of src/lib/styles/ and src/lib/components/. Names the canonical primitives and the four page shells, documents the token semantics, gives a new-page checklist, and lists the known drift as a consolidation backlog (20+ button skins, 9 menu systems, 3 modal implementations, ~400 lines of dead CSS, hard-coded colours bypassing tokens).
  • scratch/system-design/design-pass-prompts.md: four session briefs for Claude Design with a shared context block: landing page, navigation and wayfinding, secondary-surface cohesion (right-pane tabs, settings family, public reader, library creation affordances), and a primitive consolidation sheet.
  • CLAUDE.md: points page work at the components sheet.
  • TODO.md: tracks the pass and its next steps.

Not verified locally: nothing to run; docs only (prettier and an ASCII scan pass on the changed files).

Groundwork for the whole-app cohesion pass with Claude Design: a
components sheet audited from the shipped CSS and components, four
session briefs (landing, navigation, secondary surfaces, primitive
consolidation), and a CLAUDE.md pointer so page work starts from the
sheet.

design.md caught up with reality: the AI section describes the shipped
Assistant (roles, BYO key, egress policy, account toggle and story
mute), continuous-view editing, EPUB/PDF exports, the four sign-up
modes, the flat public shelf with links and commissions, and the
scene-mark preference; a new Beyond the writing surface section states
what review, insights, goals, notifications, print, import, and admin
are each for. assistant.md's status header now says shipped. Three
stale schema comments fixed. CLAUDE.md gains the keep-design-docs-
honest rule so the drift does not regrow.
