Design system: `DESIGN.md`.\nReview: `/plan-design-review`, 2026-09-15, text-only, native voice only.\n\n## Context\n\nThe account-settings form already ships. Its shell, components, states,\nfocus rules and responsive behavior are accepted and documented in DESIGN.md.\nThis plan closes five visual inconsistencies between the current form and\nthat design system without changing structure or components. Users see the\nsame page; what changes is that the primary action is legible, the rhythm is\nconsistent, error text is readable, labels use one size, and Save gives\nfeedback while it runs.\n\n## Existing product and accepted behavior (preserved verbatim)\n\nThis updates an existing account-settings form using the checked-in DESIGN.md.\nThe shell and components already exist. Profile and Notifications are the only\nsections, with visible headings and associated field labels. The page header\ncontains the title, a short description, and Save/Reset/Cancel/Export actions.\nThe existing description is “Manage your display name, email address, and notification preferences.”\nPreserve that description verbatim.\nPreserve the approved single-column structure and component behavior.\nThe page title “Account settings” is h1. Profile and Notifications are h2\nheadings that label their fieldsets via aria-labelledby; no heading level is skipped.\nThe existing DOM and visual order are:\n```text\nPersistent app navigation\nmain: Account settings (h1) + description\n Save | Reset | Cancel | Export\n InlineStatus\n Profile (h2): Display name, Email\n Notifications (h2): Weekly digest, Product tips\n```\n\nJourney: a user arrives from account navigation wanting to adjust preferences,\nedits the labeled fields, saves, and reads the inline Saved timestamp before\nleaving. The feedback preserves confidence that their preferences were stored.\nThe persistent InlineStatus has role=status, aria-live=polite, aria-atomic=true.\nAfter success it reads “Saved at HH:mm” in the user’s local 24-hour time.\nEditing away from a saved value changes its text to “Unsaved changes”, so\ndirty state never relies on color or the Save button being enabled. Reverting\nall edits or confirming Reset restores the last successful save timestamp.\nBefore any successful save, unchanged values show blank status text; editing\nshows “Unsaved changes”, and reverting or confirming Reset restores blank text.\nFailed saves retain “Unsaved changes” alongside the error message.\nInitial loading uses the existing form skeleton. A new account sees useful\ndefault preferences as specified in DESIGN.md rather than an empty page. Read failures show Retry.\nSave is atomic: all fields persist together or none do, so partial success is\nnot exposed. Field validation, network failure, and successful-save feedback\nuse the exact existing DESIGN.md patterns. Preserve unsaved values after errors.\nDisable repeat Save submissions while pending. Save and Export are mutually\nexclusive: disable both while either is pending. After Save finishes, Export\ndownloads the latest successfully saved preferences. Reset restores saved values only\nafter confirmation; Cancel confirms discarding dirty edits before returning to\nthe previous page; Export downloads the current saved preferences as JSON.\nReset and Cancel are disabled while Save or Export is pending; all four header\nactions return to their idle/dirty-state behavior when it settles. While preparing Export, use the existing inline\nspinner beside “Exporting…” inside its disabled button, aria-busy=true, with reduced-motion support.\nAn Export failure uses the existing inline error/retry area and preserves\nunsaved fields. Retry repeats Export; success clears only that Export error.\nRetry controls are siblings beside the status text, outside its live region.\nVisible text stays “Retry”; its aria-label is “Retry save” or “Retry export” for that operation.\nThe read-failure control follows the same pattern with aria-label “Retry loading”.\nThe existing router protects dirty edits on every in-app exit, including\npersistent app navigation, using the same Cancel confirmation dialog.\nRegister the browser-native beforeunload warning only while the form is dirty;\nremove it when clean. Confirmed in-app navigation uses the existing destination\nheading focus behavior; Keep editing returns focus to the attempted exit.\nDuring Save or Export, both request buttons use aria-disabled=true plus an\nexplicit click/keyboard activation guard, rather than the HTML disabled attribute.\nThey remain focusable and keep the existing disabled appearance. Reset and\nCancel use HTML disabled during the request. Do not move focus while pending\nor after success. On a network error, focus the operation-specific Retry only\nif focus is still on the request trigger; never steal focus the user moved.\nThe existing InlineStatus text stays unchanged while Save is pending:\nUnsaved changes for a dirty form, otherwise its saved timestamp or initial\nblank text. Pending feedback belongs to the request button; do not repeat\nSaving… in the status live region. Success and failure use the outcomes above.\nWhen clean and idle, Reset is disabled because it has nothing to discard,\nand Cancel navigates back immediately without a confirmation. When dirty\nand idle, Reset and Cancel use their existing discard confirmations. Their\n44px geometry is unchanged; the disabled style is separate from pending feedback.\nThe existing ErrorSummary mounts in the status/error area below the action\ngroup and above Profile. It links each invalid field; focus goes to the first\ninvalid field and the summary is not a second live region. Preserve that slot.\nThe existing error/Retry row is inline above 640px with an 8px gap. At 640px\nand below, Retry wraps below the text as a full-width 44px ghost button,\noutside the live region; long errors fit 320px without horizontal scroll.\nThe existing Export action names downloads account-settings-YYYY-MM-DD.json\nusing the local date, with no account identifiers. The browser adds its usual\nduplicate-name suffix for repeated exports. Preserve this download behavior.\n\nResponsive behavior: above 640px keep the header action group in one row; at\n640px and below, place full-width Save first and the three secondary actions\nin one equal-column row below it, preserving DOM/tab order. The form fits 320px\nwithout horizontal scroll, including the secondary actions and their 44px targets.\nAll controls have visible focus rings and 44px targets. Use semantic fieldsets,\nlabels, a main landmark and heading order; errors link through aria-describedby.\nFocus-visible on every control and dialog action is the existing 2px solid\n#1d4ed8 outline, offset 2px on white, with measured contrast above 3:1.\nDialogs trap focus; Escape cancels. Closing while staying on the form restores\nfocus to the Reset or Cancel trigger. Confirmed navigation uses the existing\ndestination-main-heading focus behavior. Export remains a\nclearly labeled button. Respect reduced motion. No additional visual exploration\nor component replacement is part of this established form update.\nRetain the existing system-ui, sans-serif font family, including on form controls.\n\n## Open design gaps (pending individual review decisions)\n\nEach item below is an unresolved finding from the source plan. A DESIGN.md\ntoken that matches a gap is a proposed fix, not an approved one. Status moves\nto \"approved\" only after its own review decision.\n\n| # | Gap (from PLAN.md) | Current state | Proposed fix (pending) | Status |\n|---|--------------------|---------------|------------------------|--------|\n| 1 | Visual hierarchy: Save is styled identically to Reset/Cancel/Export | No primary action legible | DESIGN.md: Save filled `#1d4ed8` + white text; Reset/Cancel/Export neutral ghost | **approved (1A, D4)** — see \"Approved design decisions\" |\n| 2 | Motion: Save takes 2-5s with no pending indicator | Frozen page | DESIGN.md: inline spinner beside “Saving…” inside the disabled Save button, aria-busy=true, reduced motion | **approved (2A, D5)** — see \"Approved design decisions\" |\n| 3 | Typography: labels use 14px, 16px, 18px | Three label sizes, 14px below body minimum | DESIGN.md: 16px body/labels/helper, 20px section headings | **approved (3A, D6)** — see \"Approved design decisions\" |\n| 4 | Spacing: 16px / 24px / 32px between sections, no rhythm | Inconsistent vertical rhythm | DESIGN.md: 8px base; sections 32px, field groups 24px, label-to-input 8px | **approved (4A, D7)** — see \"Approved design decisions\" |\n| 5 | Color: error red on light pink, ~3:1 contrast | Fails WCAG AA for body text | DESIGN.md: `error.text #991b1b` on `error.surface #fef2f2` with icon and explicit text | **approved (5A, D8)** — see \"Approved design decisions\" |\n\n## Approved design decisions\n\n### Decision 1 (1A): Primary action hierarchy\nSave is the only filled button: background `#1d4ed8`, white text (existing\nButton primary variant). Reset, Cancel and Export use the existing neutral\nghost variant. Applies in both layouts: the single desktop row above 640px and\nthe 320px stack (full-width filled Save, then three equal-column ghost\nsecondaries). Disabled and pending appearances for Save keep the filled\nvariant's existing disabled styling; ghost secondaries keep the ghost disabled\nstyling. 44px targets and DOM/tab order are unchanged.\n\nInformation hierarchy the user should read, in order:\n```text\n1. \"Account settings\" (h1) + description — where am I\n2. Save (filled #1d4ed8) — the one action that commits\n3. InlineStatus text — blank / \"Unsaved changes\" / \"Saved at HH:mm\"\n4. Profile (h2) → Display name, Email — the fields\n5. Notifications (h2) → Weekly digest, Product tips\n Reset | Cancel | Export sit beside Save as quiet ghost buttons and never\n compete with it for the first glance.\n```\n\n### Decision 2 (2A): Save pending state\nWhile Save is in flight, the Save button shows the existing inline spinner\nbeside the label “Saving…”, matching the Export “Exporting…” pattern exactly:\n- Button gets `aria-disabled=\"true\"` + the existing click/keyboard activation\n guard (not the HTML `disabled` attribute), `aria-busy=\"true\"`, stays\n focusable, keeps the filled variant's existing disabled appearance.\n- Reserve width: the Save button has a `min-width` equal to its rendered\n “Saving…” + spinner width so the header row does not shift when the label\n changes. At 640px and below it is already full-width, so no reservation is\n needed there.\n- `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce`: the spinner does not animate (static\n glyph); the “Saving…” text is the cue.\n- The InlineStatus live region does not change while pending (accepted\n behavior above). The button's text change is the only pending feedback.\n- On settle: success → label returns to “Save”, spinner removed, aria-busy\n removed, InlineStatus reads “Saved at HH:mm”. Failure → same button reset,\n InlineStatus keeps “Unsaved changes”, inline error + “Retry” (aria-label\n “Retry save”) appear in the status/error area. Focus does not move except\n the existing “focus Retry only if focus is still on the trigger” rule.\n\n### Decision 3 (3A): Typography roles\nExactly two type roles on this page, per DESIGN.md:\n- **16px** — body, field labels, input text, switch labels, helper text,\n inline field errors, ErrorSummary items, InlineStatus text, button labels.\n No text on the page renders below 16px.\n- **20px** — the Profile and Notifications h2 headings.\n- The h1 keeps the existing page-title size from the shell (unchanged).\n- Font family stays `system-ui, sans-serif`, inherited by form controls.\nRemove the 14px and 18px label sizes; emphasis between fields comes from\ngrouping and spacing (Decision 4), not from size.\n\n### Decision 4 (4A): Spacing scale\nAll vertical spacing on the page uses DESIGN.md's 8px base with three steps:\n- **32px** between sections: description → action group, status/error slot →\n Profile fieldset, Profile → Notifications. More space above a section\n heading than below it (32px above the h2, 8px between the h2 and its first\n field group).\n- **24px** between field groups inside a fieldset: Display name → Email,\n Weekly digest → Product tips.\n- **8px** between a label and its input, between the action group and the\n InlineStatus/error slot, and (existing) between error text and its Retry\n button above 640px.\n- Horizontal gap between header buttons is 8px above 640px; at 640px and\n below, 8px between Save and the secondary row and 8px between the three\n equal-column secondaries.\nThe 16px value is no longer used for block spacing on this page. The form keeps\nits 640px maximum width.\n\n### Decision 5 (5A): Error color and treatment\nAll error presentation on the page uses the DESIGN.md pair\n`error.text #991b1b` on `error.surface #fef2f2` (measured 7.6:1, clears WCAG\nAA 4.5:1 and AAA 7:1 for body text), at the 16px role from Decision 3:\n- Inline field errors under Display name / Email (linked via\n `aria-describedby`).\n- ErrorSummary in the status/error slot below the action group.\n- Network error rows for Save, Export and initial read in that same slot,\n beside their “Retry” sibling button (outside the live region).\nEach error row/summary starts with the existing error icon (decorative,\n`aria-hidden`) followed by explicit text, so the state never depends on color\nalone. The current red-on-light-pink pair is removed. Focus-ring, Retry\ngeometry (44px, full-width ghost at 640px and below) and the 8px inline gap\nabove 640px are unchanged.\n\nContrast inventory after this decision (all measured or DESIGN.md-stated):\n- Body/labels: existing text color on white, meets AA (unchanged).\n- Save primary: white on `#1d4ed8`, 6.7:1.\n- Error text: `#991b1b` on `#fef2f2`, 7.6:1.\n- Focus ring: `#1d4ed8` outline on white, above 3:1 (DESIGN.md measured).\n\n### Interaction state table (what the user sees)\n\n| Feature | Loading | Empty | Error | Success | Partial |\n|---------|---------|-------|-------|---------|---------|\n| Page / form | Existing form skeleton in the fieldset slots; header and actions render | Never blank: server defaults (account name/email, Weekly digest on, Product tips off) | Read failure: inline error + “Retry” (aria-label “Retry loading”) in status/error slot; fields stay in skeleton | Fields populated, InlineStatus blank until first save | n/a (single read) |\n| Save button | Spinner + “Saving…”, aria-busy, aria-disabled, no width shift (Decision 2) | n/a | Label back to “Save”; error text + “Retry save” in slot; edits preserved | Label back to “Save”; InlineStatus “Saved at HH:mm” | Never shown: save is atomic |\n| InlineStatus (role=status, polite, atomic) | Unchanged while pending | Blank before first save when unchanged | Keeps “Unsaved changes” beside the error | “Saved at HH:mm” (local 24h) | n/a |\n| Field validation | n/a | n/a | Inline error under field via aria-describedby; ErrorSummary below actions links each field; focus → first invalid field | Errors clear on valid resubmit | n/a |\n| Export button | Spinner + “Exporting…”, aria-busy, aria-disabled; Save also aria-disabled | n/a | Inline error + “Retry export”; unsaved fields untouched | Download `account-settings-YYYY-MM-DD.json`; clears only the Export error | n/a |\n| Reset | HTML disabled while Save/Export pending | Disabled when clean (nothing to discard) | n/a | Confirm dialog → restores saved values; InlineStatus restores timestamp or blank | n/a |\n| Cancel | HTML disabled while Save/Export pending | Clean: navigates back immediately | n/a | Dirty: confirm dialog → “Discard and leave” navigates; destination heading focused | n/a |\n| Dialogs (Reset / Cancel / router exit) | n/a | n/a | n/a | Focus trapped; Escape = Keep editing; close returns focus to trigger or attempted exit | n/a |\n\n### Journey storyboard (accepted journey, rendered for QA)\n\n| Step | User does | User feels | Plan specifies |\n|------|-----------|------------|----------------|\n| 1 | Arrives from account navigation | Oriented: \"this is where my preferences live\" | h1 “Account settings” + verbatim description; persistent nav; main landmark; skeleton then defaults, never a blank page |\n| 2 | Scans the header | Certain which button commits | Decision 1: Save is the only filled button; three ghost secondaries |\n| 3 | Edits Display name / toggles Weekly digest | In control, aware of being mid-change | InlineStatus → “Unsaved changes” (text, not color); Reset enables; beforeunload registered |\n| 4 | Clicks Save | \"It heard me\" within 100ms | Decision 2: spinner + “Saving…” in the button, aria-busy, no layout shift, no focus move |\n| 5a | Save succeeds | Relief, confidence to leave | InlineStatus “Saved at HH:mm”; Save label returns; Export now reflects saved values |\n| 5b | Save fails (network) | Frustrated but not stranded | Edits preserved; “Unsaved changes” stays; readable error + “Retry save”; focus to Retry only if still on Save |\n| 5c | Save fails (validation) | Knows exactly what to fix | ErrorSummary links fields; focus → first invalid field; field errors via aria-describedby |\n| 6 | Changes mind / wants to leave dirty | Protected from an accidental loss | Reset / Cancel / any in-app exit → same confirmation dialog, “Keep editing” default, Escape cancels, focus returns to trigger |\n| 7 | Exports | Trusts the file is theirs and current | `account-settings-YYYY-MM-DD.json`, no identifiers, latest saved values; “Exporting…” pending |\n| 8 | Leaves | Sure the change stuck | Timestamp visible until exit; no beforeunload nag when clean |\n\nTime horizons: 5 seconds (visceral) = h1 + one filled Save; 5 minutes\n(behavioral) = the dirty → pending → saved text loop; 5 years (reflective) =\natomic saves, exit protection and identifier-free exports keep trust intact.\n\n## Pass 4 record: AI slop / hard rules (OPERATE surface)\n\nClassifier: OPERATE (App UI). Hard rejections: none. Litmus: 1 YES (shell nav\n+ h1), 2 YES after Decision 1 (single filled Save), 3 YES (h1/Profile/\nNotifications), 4 YES, 5 N/A (no cards), 6 YES (only motion is the informative\npending spinner, reduced-motion respected), 7 YES (no decorative shadows).\nUniversal-rule violation found and fixed: sub-16px labels / three label sizes\n(Decision 3). Noted, not reopened: `system-ui` as the display voice (see NOT in\nscope).\n\n## NOT in scope\n\nConsidered during review and explicitly not changed:\n- **Display typeface.** `system-ui, sans-serif` is a known \"default stack\"\n tell, but the source plan freezes it twice and DESIGN.md names it as the app\n font. OPERATE surfaces favor native expectations; no readability gap exists.\n- **Layout or component changes.** Single column, 640px max width, existing\n Button/Field/InlineStatus/ErrorSummary/ConfirmationDialog only; the plan\n rules out component replacement.\n- **Description copy.** Preserved verbatim per plan.\n- **Visual mockups and outside voices.** Skipped at the user's request for this\n run; the designer binary is available if a later run wants them.\n- **Dark mode / theming.** Not mentioned in plan or DESIGN.md; all tokens are\n stated on white. Not introduced.\n\n## What already exists (reuse, do not rebuild)\n\n- DESIGN.md tokens: primary `#1d4ed8` + white, ghost secondary, 8px spacing\n base (32/24/8), type roles 16/20, `error.text #991b1b` / `error.surface\n #fef2f2`, focus ring 2px solid `#1d4ed8` offset 2px.\n- Components: Button (primary + ghost variants, disabled styling), Field\n (label, input, helper, inline error with aria-describedby), InlineStatus\n (role=status, polite, atomic), ErrorSummary (linked list, focus-first-\n invalid), ConfirmationDialog (focus trap, Escape, default action, focus\n return), form skeleton, inline spinner with reduced-motion support.\n- Behaviors: atomic save, Save/Export mutual exclusion, aria-disabled +\n activation guard, router dirty-exit protection, beforeunload registration,\n Export download naming, 640px/320px action-group layout, Retry sibling\n pattern with operation-specific aria-labels.\n\n## TODOS.md updates\n\nNone proposed. All five findings were approved for this change; the only\nout-of-scope debt candidate (display typeface) is covered by the plan's\nexplicit \"no additional visual exploration\" deferral.\n\n## Implementation Tasks\nSynthesized from this review's findings.

Run with Claude Code or Codex; checkbox as you ship.\n(Source files are not in this fixture repo; paths name the component to touch.)\n\n- [ ] **T1 (P1, human: ~1h / CC: ~5min)** — Header action group — Apply primary/ghost variants: Save filled `#1d4ed8`/white, Reset/Cancel/Export ghost, in both layouts\n - Surfaced by: Pass 1 — Issue 1 / Decision 1 (1A)\n - Files: account-settings page action group; Button variant props (no new variant)\n - Verify: screenshot at 1024px and 320px shows exactly one filled button; disabled/pending Save keeps filled-disabled style; tab order unchanged\n- [ ] **T2 (P1, human: ~3h / CC: ~15min)** — Save button pending state — Spinner + “Saving…”, `aria-busy`, `aria-disabled` + activation guard, min-width reservation, reduced-motion static glyph\n - Surfaced by: Pass 2 — Issue 2 / Decision 2 (2A)\n - Files: account-settings save handler / Save button; reuse Export's pending implementation\n - Verify: throttle network to 3s save; button label changes within one frame, header row width does not shift, InlineStatus text unchanged while pending, `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce` shows no animation, screen reader announces busy; success → “Saved at HH:mm”, failure → “Unsaved changes” + “Retry save”\n- [ ] **T3 (P1, human: ~2h / CC: ~10min)** — Error presentation — Switch all error text/surfaces to `#991b1b` on `#fef2f2` with leading icon: Field inline errors, ErrorSummary, Save/Export/read error rows\n - Surfaced by: Pass 6 — Issue 5 / Decision 5 (5A)\n - Files: Field error style, ErrorSummary style, status/error slot style; error icon asset (confirm the existing components render it; add per DESIGN.md if not)\n - Verify: measured contrast ≥ 7:1 on all three surfaces; icon is `aria-hidden`; axe/Lighthouse contrast audit passes; grayscale screenshot still reads as an error\n- [ ] **T4 (P2, human: ~1h / CC: ~5min)** — Typography — Collapse label sizes to 16px (labels, inputs, helper, errors, status, buttons) and 20px (h2 headings); remove 14px and 18px\n - Surfaced by: Pass 4 — Issue 3 / Decision 3 (3A)\n - Files: account-settings form styles; Field label/helper styles\n - Verify: computed `font-size` of every text node on the page is 16px or 20px (h1 excepted); iOS Safari does not zoom on input focus\n- [ ] **T5 (P2, human: ~1h / CC: ~5min)** — Spacing — Apply 32px section / 24px field-group / 8px label-to-input ladder; remove ad hoc 16px block gaps\n - Surfaced by: Pass 5 — Issue 4 / Decision 4 (4A)\n - Files: account-settings form styles (fieldset, field group, action group, status slot margins)\n - Verify: computed vertical gaps match 32/24/8 at 1024px and 320px; h2 has 32px above and 8px below; no horizontal scroll at 320px\n- [ ] **T6 (P2, human: ~2h / CC: ~10min)** — End-to-end design QA — Run `/design-review` against the built page covering the state table and storyboard above\n - Surfaced by: Passes 2, 3, 6 — interaction state table, journey storyboard, contrast inventory\n - Files: n/a (verification)\n - Verify: every row of the interaction state table observed at 640px and 320px; keyboard-only walk through Save/Reset/Cancel/Export and both dialogs; reduced-motion run\n\n_No new tasks from Pass 7 (no unresolved decisions)._\n\n## Completion Summary\n\n```\n +====================================================================+\n | DESIGN PLAN REVIEW — COMPLETION SUMMARY |\n +====================================================================+\n | System Audit | DESIGN.md present; 1 page, 4 actions, 2 |\n | | fieldsets, 2 dialogs, 640/320 breakpoints |\n | Step 0 | 6/10 initial; all 7 dimensions reviewed |\n | Pass 1 (Info Arch) | 7/10 → 10/10 after fixes |\n | Pass 2 (States) | 7/10 → 10/10 after fixes |\n | Pass 3 (Journey) | 8/10 → 10/10 after fixes (carried D5) |\n | Pass 4 (AI Slop) | 7/10 → 9/10 after fixes (system-ui frozen)|\n | Pass 5 (Design Sys) | 6/10 → 10/10 after fixes |\n | Pass 6 (Responsive) | 7/10 → 10/10 after fixes |\n | Pass 7 (Decisions) | 5 resolved, 0 deferred |\n +--------------------------------------------------------------------+\n | NOT in scope | written (5 items) |\n | What already exists | written |\n | TODOS.md updates | 0 items proposed |\n | Approved Mockups | 0 generated, 0 approved (text-only run) |\n | Decisions made | 5 added to plan |\n | Decisions deferred | 0 |\n | Overall design score | 6/10 → 9/10 |\n +====================================================================+\n```\n\nOverall = lowest rated pass. Before: Pass 5 at 6. After: Pass 4 at 9, held\nthere only by the `system-ui` display font, which the plan freezes by design.\nPlan is design-complete (all passes 8+). Run `/design-review` after\nimplementation for visual QA (T6).\n\n## Unresolved Decisions\n\nNone.

Five findings, five individual decisions, all took the DESIGN.md token: 1A\n primary/ghost buttons, 2A \"Saving…\" spinner-in-button with min-width and reduced-motion fallback, 3A two type roles\n 16/20, 4A spacing 32/24/8, 5A #991b1b on #fef2f2 + icon (7.6:1).\n - Added to the plan: information hierarchy, interaction state table, journey storyboard, contrast inventory,\n NOT-in-scope, reuse list, 6 tasks (T1-T3 P1, T4-T6 P2).\n - Held back from 10: Pass 4 at 9 because system-ui is a default-stack tell. You froze it, so it's recorded, not\n reopened.\n\n Artifacts\n - Plan: /tmp/gstack-owned-display-5rq8vgtz/gstack-paid-shard-GyYm2x/tmp/gstack-e2e-plan-design-WF8veK/gstack-test-plan\n -design.md (report is the last section, read-back verified)\n - Tasks JSONL for /autoplan: .../projects/gstack-plan-count-Ep0KEE/tasks-design-review-20260915-160711.jsonl (6 tasks)\n - Review log written; learning logged (fixture repo has no source, so tasks name components not paths).\n\n Skipped, per your instructions: mockups, outside voices, and the next-step menu (you said you'll run subsequent\n reviews manually, so I'm not chaining /plan-eng-review; it remains the required ship gate).\n\n STATUS: DONE. No unresolved decisions. Staying in plan mode; nothing outside the plan file was edited.\n\n✻ Cooked for 10m 47s · done 4:07 PM\n\n────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────\n❯  \n────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────\n ⏸ plan mode on (shift+tab to cycle) · ← for agents ✔ Update installed · Restart to apply\n\n" }
