 ## Panel Open Animation
 
-CSS Grid column transition — most reliable cross-browser approach for "grow from divider" effect:
+CSS Grid column transition on the `.apply-split` root element:
 
 ```css
 .apply-split {
   display: grid;
-  grid-template-columns: 28% 0fr;        /* collapsed: panel has 0 width */
+  grid-template-columns: 28% 0fr;
   transition: grid-template-columns 200ms ease-out;
 }
 .apply-split.has-selection {
-  grid-template-columns: 28% 1fr;        /* expanded */
+  grid-template-columns: 28% 1fr;
+}
+
+/* Required: prevent intrinsic min-content from blocking collapse */
+.apply-split__panel {
+  min-width: 0;
+  overflow: clip; /* clip (not hidden) — hidden creates a new stacking context
+                     and blocks position:sticky children inside the workspace */
 }
 ```
 
-The panel column itself has `overflow: hidden`, so content is clipped during expansion. A `opacity: 0 → 1` fade on the panel content (100ms delay, 150ms duration) layers on top so content doesn't flash half-rendered mid-expand.
+`min-width: 0` on `.apply-split__panel` is required — without it, the panel's intrinsic content width prevents the `0fr` column from collapsing to zero.
 
-`prefers-reduced-motion`: skip the grid transition and opacity fade; panel appears instantly.
+Panel content fades in on top of the expand: `opacity: 0 → 1` with a 100ms delay and 150ms duration, so content doesn't flash half-rendered mid-expand.
+
+**Panel height:** The right panel uses `height: calc(100vh - var(--app-header-height, 4rem))` with `overflow-y: auto` so the workspace scrolls independently within the column. Use a CSS variable rather than a bare literal so height stays correct if the nav height changes.
+
+**`prefers-reduced-motion`:** Skip the grid transition and opacity fade; panel appears and content shows instantly.
+
+---
+
+## Post-Action Behavior (Mark Applied / Reject)
+
+In the current `ApplyWorkspaceView.vue`, both `markApplied()` and `rejectListing()` call `router.push('/apply')` after success — fine for a full-page route.
+
+In the embedded split-pane context, `router.push('/apply')` is a no-op (already there), but `selectedJobId` must also be cleared and the job list refreshed. `ApplyWorkspace.vue` emits a `job-removed` event when either action completes. `ApplyView.vue` handles it:
+
+```
+@job-removed="onJobRemoved()"  →  selectedJobId = null + re-fetch job list
+```
+
+The thin `ApplyWorkspaceView.vue` wrapper can handle `@job-removed` by calling `router.push('/apply')` as before (same behavior, different mechanism).

 ## Easter Eggs
 
-All four easter eggs are scoped to `ApplyView.vue` / `ApplyWorkspace.vue`:
-
 ### 1. Speed Demon 🦅
 - **Trigger:** User clicks 5+ different jobs in under 3 seconds
-- **Effect:** A `<canvas>`-based 🦅 streaks horizontally across the panel area (left → right, 600ms), followed by a brief "you're on the hunt" toast (2s, bottom-right)
-- **`prefers-reduced-motion`:** Toast only, no canvas animation
+- **Effect:** A `<canvas>` element, absolutely positioned inside the split-pane container (`.apply-split` has `position: relative`), renders a 🦅 streaking left → right across the panel area (600ms). Followed by a "you're on the hunt" toast (2s, bottom-right).
+- **`prefers-reduced-motion`:** Toast only, no canvas
 
 ### 2. Perfect Match ✨
 - **Trigger:** A job with `match_score ≥ 70` is opened in the workspace
-- **Effect:** The score badge in the workspace header plays a golden shimmer (`box-shadow` + `background` keyframe, 800ms, runs once per job open)
-- **Threshold:** Stored as `const PERFECT_MATCH_THRESHOLD = 70` — easy to tune when scoring improves
-- **Note:** Current scoring rarely exceeds 40%; this easter egg may be dormant until the scoring algorithm is tuned. That's fine — it's a delight for when it does fire.
+- **Effect:** The score badge in the workspace header plays a golden shimmer (`box-shadow` + `background` keyframe, 800ms, once per open)
+- **Threshold constant:** `const PERFECT_MATCH_THRESHOLD = 70` at top of `ApplyWorkspace.vue` — intentionally matches the `score-badge--high` boundary (≥ 70%). If badge thresholds are tuned later, update this constant in sync.
+- **Note:** Current scoring rarely exceeds 40% — this easter egg may be dormant until the scoring algorithm is tuned. The constant makes it easy to adjust.
 
 ### 3. Cover Letter Marathon 📬
-- **Trigger:** 5th cover letter generated in a single session (session-scoped counter in the Pinia store or component ref)
-- **Effect:** A subtle streak badge appears in the list panel header: `📬 5 today` with a warm amber glow. Increments with each subsequent generation. Disappears on page refresh.
+- **Trigger:** 5th cover letter generated in a single session
+- **Counter:** Component-level `ref<number>` in `ApplyView.vue` (not Pinia) — resets on page refresh, persists across job selections within the session
+- **Effect:** A `📬 N today` streak badge appears in the list panel header with a warm amber glow. Increments with each subsequent generation.
 - **Tooltip:** "You're on a roll!" on hover
 
 ### 4. Konami Code 🎮
-- **Trigger:** ↑↑↓↓←→←→BA (standard Konami sequence), detected anywhere on the Apply view
-- **Effect:** Activates hacker mode (`document.documentElement.setAttribute('data-theme', 'hacker')`) — consistent with the cross-product Konami standard
-- **Implementation:** `useKonami()` composable (shared if it exists, else add to `composables/`)
+- **Trigger:** ↑↑↓↓←→←→BA anywhere on the Apply view
+- **Implementation:** Use the **existing** `useKonamiCode(callback)` + `useHackerMode()` from `web/src/composables/useEasterEgg.ts`. Do **not** create a new `useKonami.ts` composable — one already exists. Do **not** add a new global `keydown` listener (one is already registered in `App.vue`); wire up via the composable's callback pattern instead.

-- `ApplyWorkspaceView.vue` — becomes a thin wrapper around `<ApplyWorkspace :job-id="id" />`
+- `/apply/:id` route — still exists, still works (used by mobile nav)
 - All existing mobile breakpoint styles in `ApplyView.vue`
