Captures the impeccable context for the GUI redesign greenlit on 2026-05-12:
PRODUCT.md - register=product, primary persona=solo broadcast operator at
1:50am with a live show twenty minutes out. Strategic principles foreground
progressive disclosure over progressive density. Anti-references explicitly
name the "vibe-coded GUI" failure mode (cards-in-a-grid, hero-metric template,
Zoom pastel, generic SaaS dashboard) so the redesign can be measured against
what it must not become.
DESIGN.md - tokens for the WinUI 3 replatform target. Dark + light palettes
as ThemeDictionary entries, context-aware accent split (accent.cyan.surface
for fill, accent.cyan.text for the darker AA-passing variant on light bg).
Theming via {ThemeResource}; toggle in title bar + settings drawer; System/
Dark/Light tri-state persisted in UIPreferences.Theme.
