# Where we left off — v2 "Studio Terminal" shell complete (2026-05-15)

## What's done on main

**v2 shape locked.** Approved brief at
`docs/shapes/2026-05-13-teamsiso-v2-studio-terminal.md`. Aesthetic
register: "broadcast-engineering instrument" — Linear's keyboard-first
density × Avid console legibility. Goes hard against the "screams AI"
failure mode.

**WinUI 3 replatform: abandoned.** The early-May scoping concluded that
the redesign is purely view-layer (XAML + theme tokens + view-models);
doing it in WPF is strictly less work than fighting WinUI 3 activation +
DataGrid replacement. The migration plan + bootstrap probe are archived
under `docs/archive/` for the record.

**Shell:**
- Default Windows title bar (no custom chromeless caption buttons).
- 32px header — Wild Dragon mark + "TeamsISO" wordmark left; three icon
  buttons right (⌘K command palette, theme toggle, settings gear).
- 40px transport strip — single mono line:
  `● 02:14:32  PART 4 · LIVE 2  CTRL :9755`. Cyan dot + timer only when
  at least one ISO live.
- Body — alert banner + update banner + action toolbar + participants
  DataGrid + (conditional) meeting bar at the bottom.
- Settings — slide-over drawer (420px from right) with OUTPUT / NETWORK /
  APP tabs. Scrim click or Esc dismisses.
- v1 leftovers (72px rail, 380px permanent settings panel, six-column
  footer) are gone.

**Theme system:**
- `Themes/Theme.Dark.xaml` + `Themes/Theme.Light.xaml` — color brushes
  only.
- `Themes/WildDragonTheme.xaml` — styles + control templates (no color
  brushes; every brush ref is `DynamicResource`).
- `Services/ThemeManager.cs` — swaps the merged dictionary at runtime;
  reads `HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Themes\Personalize\AppsUseLightTheme`
  for System mode; subscribes to `SystemEvents.UserPreferenceChanged`;
  persists via `UIPreferences.Theme`.

**Task 39 — participants table v2 (LANDED).**
Five columns: 24px state LED, name + codec caption, 110px audio meter,
130px mono output name, 100px ISO pill. 52px rows. Full-row
active-speaker tint (replaces the v1 left-stripe).

**Task 40 — Ctrl+K command palette (LANDED).**
`Views/CommandPaletteWindow.xaml` + `ViewModels/CommandPaletteViewModel.cs`
ship a centered 560×360 floating window with fuzzy search across Quick /
Teams / Presets / Output / Network / App categories. ↑/↓ navigates,
Enter invokes, Esc closes. The header ⌘K button and Ctrl+K (also Ctrl+P)
keyboard binding both open it.

**Hotkeys:**
- `F1` — help / cheat sheet
- `Ctrl+K` (also `Ctrl+P`) — command palette
- `Ctrl+T` — toggle theme (dark ↔ light)
- `Ctrl+M` — drop marker into every active recording
- `Ctrl+R` — refresh NDI discovery
- `Ctrl+Shift+S` — panic-stop every ISO
- `1`–`9` / `NumPad 1`–`9` — toggle the Nth visible participant's ISO

## What's queued

Pre-1.0 cut is gated on:
1. Code-signing the MSI (`SIGN_CERT_PFX_BASE64` + `SIGN_CERT_PASSWORD`
   Forgejo Secrets wired in `release.yml`).
2. A real-meeting smoke pass on a host with a live NDI runtime.

## Build + run

```powershell
dotnet build TeamsISO.Windows.slnf -c Release
.\src\TeamsISO.App\bin\Release\net8.0-windows\TeamsISO.exe
```

The shipped helpers `build-and-test.ps1` and `commit-and-push.ps1`
wrap the build + test + push flow.

If something regresses, `1d1ce6a` is the rollback point for the WPF v1
shell (recording was axed at that commit), and `c271303` is the v2
shell-without-table-redesign rollback point.
