fix: update tests to match refactored scheduler and free-tier Vue SPA

- task_scheduler: extend LocalScheduler (concrete class), not TaskScheduler
  (Protocol); remove unsupported VRAM kwargs from super().__init__()
- dev-api: lazy import db_migrate inside _startup() to avoid worktree
  scripts cache issue in test_dev_api_settings.py
- test_task_scheduler: update VRAM-attribute tests to match LocalScheduler
  (no _available_vram/_reserved_vram); drop deepest-queue VRAM-gating
  ordering assertion (LocalScheduler is FIFO, not priority-gated);
  suppress PytestUnhandledThreadExceptionWarning on crash test; fix
  budget assertion to not depend on shared pytest tmp dir state
- test_dev_api_settings: patch path functions (_resume_path, _search_prefs_path,
  _license_path, _tokens_path, _config_dir) instead of removed module-level
  constants; mock _TRAINING_JSONL for finetune status idle test
- test_wizard_tiers: Vue SPA is free tier (issue #20), assert True
- test_wizard_api: patch _search_prefs_path() function, not SEARCH_PREFS_PATH
- test_ui_switcher: free-tier vue preference no longer downgrades to streamlit

+## [0.8.5] — 2026-04-02
+
+### Added
+
+- **Vue onboarding wizard** — 7-step first-run setup replaces the Streamlit wizard
+  in the Vue SPA: Hardware detection → Tier → Resume upload/build → Identity →
+  Inference & API keys → Search preferences → Integrations. Progress saves to
+  `user.yaml` on every step; crash-recovery resumes from the last completed step.
+- **Wizard API endpoints** — `GET /api/wizard/status`, `POST /api/wizard/step`,
+  `GET /api/wizard/hardware`, `POST /api/wizard/inference/test`,
+  `POST /api/wizard/complete`. Inference test always soft-fails so Ollama being
+  unreachable never blocks setup completion.
+- **Cloud auto-skip** — cloud instances automatically complete steps 1 (hardware),
+  2 (tier), and 5 (inference) and drop the user directly on the Resume step.
+- **`wizardGuard` router gate** — all Vue routes require wizard completion; completed
+  users are bounced away from `/setup` to `/`.
+- **Chip-input search step** — job titles and locations entered as press-Enter/comma
+  chips; validates at least one title before advancing.
+- **Integrations tile grid** — optional step 7 shows Notion, Calendar, Slack, Discord,
+  Drive with paid-tier badges; skippable on Finish.
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **User config isolation: dangerous fallback removed** — `_user_yaml_path()` fell
+  back to `/devl/job-seeker/config/user.yaml` (legacy profile) when `user.yaml`
+  didn't exist at the expected path; new users now get an empty dict instead of
+  another user's data. Affects profile, resume, search, and all wizard endpoints.
+- **Resume path not user-isolated** — `RESUME_PATH = Path("config/plain_text_resume.yaml")`
+  was a relative CWD path shared across all users. Replaced with `_resume_path()`
+  derived from `_user_yaml_path()` / `STAGING_DB`.
+- **Resume upload silently returned empty data** — `upload_resume` was passing a
+  file path string to `structure_resume()` which expects raw text; now reads bytes
+  and dispatches to the correct extractor (`extract_text_from_pdf` / `_docx` / `_odt`).
+- **Wizard resume step read wrong envelope field** — `WizardResumeStep.vue` read
+  `data.experience` but the upload response wraps parsed data under `data.data`.
+
+---
+
+## [0.8.4] — 2026-04-02
+
+### Fixed
+
+- **Cloud: cover letter used wrong user's profile** — `generate_cover_letter.generate()`
+  loaded `_profile` from the global `config/user.yaml` at module import time, so all
+  cloud users got the default user's name, voice, and mission preferences in their
+  generated letters. `generate()` now accepts a `user_yaml_path` parameter; `task_runner`
+  derives it from the per-user config directory (`db_path/../config/user.yaml`) and
+  passes it through. `_build_system_context`, `_build_mission_notes`, `detect_mission_alignment`,
+  `build_prompt`, and `_trim_to_letter_end` all accept a `profile` override so the
+  per-call profile is used end-to-end without breaking CLI mode.
+- **Apply Workspace: hardcoded config paths in cloud mode** — `4_Apply.py` was loading
+  `_USER_YAML` and `RESUME_YAML` from the repo-root `config/` before `resolve_session()`
+  ran, so cloud users saw the global (Meg's) resume in the Apply tab. Both paths now
+  derive from `get_config_dir()` after session resolution.
+
+### Changed
+
+- **Vue SPA open to all tiers** — Vue 3 frontend is no longer gated behind the beta
+  flag; all tier users can switch to the Vue UI from Settings.
+- **LLM model candidates** — vllm backend now tries Qwen2.5-3B first, Phi-4-mini
+  as fallback (was reversed). cf_orch allocation block added to vllm config.
+- **Preflight** — removed `vllm` from Docker adoption list; vllm is now managed
+  entirely by cf-orch and should not be stubbed by preflight.
+
+---
+
+## [0.8.3] — 2026-04-01
+
+### Fixed
+- **CI: Forgejo auth** — GitHub Actions `pip install` was failing to fetch
+  `circuitforge-core` from the private Forgejo VCS URL. Added `FORGEJO_TOKEN`
+  repository secret and a `git config insteadOf` step to inject credentials
+  before `pip install`.
+- **CI: settings API tests** — 6 `test_dev_api_settings` PUT/POST tests were
+  returning HTTP 500 in CI because `_user_yaml_path()` read the module-level
+  `DB_PATH` constant (frozen at import time), so `monkeypatch.setenv("STAGING_DB")`
+  had no effect. Fixed by reading `os.environ` at call time.
+
+---
+
+## [0.8.2] — 2026-04-01
+
+### Fixed
+- **CI pipeline** — `pip install -r requirements.txt` was failing in GitHub Actions
+  because `-e ../circuitforge-core` requires a sibling directory that doesn't exist
+  in a single-repo checkout. Replaced with a `git+https://` VCS URL fallback;
+  `Dockerfile.cfcore` still installs from the local `COPY` to avoid redundant
+  network fetches during Docker builds.
+- **Vue-nav reload loop** — `sync_ui_cookie()` was calling
+  `window.parent.location.reload()` on every render when `user.yaml` has
+  `ui_preference: vue` but no Caddy proxy is in the traffic path (test instances,
+  bare Docker). Gated the reload on `PEREGRINE_CADDY_PROXY=1`; instances without
+  the env var set the cookie silently and skip the reload.
+
+### Changed
+- **cfcore VRAM lease integration** — the task scheduler now acquires a VRAM lease
+  from the cf-orch coordinator before running a batch of LLM tasks and releases it
+  when the batch completes. Visible in the coordinator dashboard at `:7700`.
+- **`CF_ORCH_URL` env var** — scheduler reads coordinator address from
+  `CF_ORCH_URL` (default `http://localhost:7700`); set to
+  `http://host.docker.internal:7700` in Docker compose files so containers can
+  reach the host coordinator.
+- **All compose files on `Dockerfile.cfcore`** — `compose.yml`, `compose.cloud.yml`,
+  and `compose.test-cfcore.yml` all use the parent-context build. `build: .` is
+  removed from `compose.yml`.
+
+---
+
+## [0.8.1] — 2026-04-01
+
+### Fixed
+- **Job title suggester silent failure** — when the LLM returned empty arrays or
+  non-JSON text, the spinner would complete with zero UI feedback. Now shows an
+  explicit "No new suggestions found" info message with a resume-upload hint for
+  new users who haven't uploaded a resume yet.
+- **Suggester exception handling** — catch `Exception` instead of only
+  `RuntimeError` so connection errors and `FileNotFoundError` (missing llm.yaml)
+  surface as error messages rather than crashing the page silently.
+
+### Added
+- **`Dockerfile.cfcore`** — parent-context Dockerfile that copies
+  `circuitforge-core/` alongside `peregrine/` before `pip install`, resolving
+  the `-e ../circuitforge-core` editable requirement inside Docker.
+- **`compose.test-cfcore.yml`** — single-user test instance on port 8516 for
+  smoke-testing cfcore shim integration before promoting to the cloud instance.
+
+---
+
+## [0.8.0] — 2026-04-01
+
+### Added
+- **ATS Resume Optimizer** (gap report free; LLM rewrite paid+)
+  - `scripts/resume_optimizer.py` — full pipeline: TF-IDF gap extraction →
+    `prioritize_gaps` → `rewrite_for_ats` → hallucination guard (anchor-set
+    diffing on employers, institutions, and dates)
+  - `scripts/db.py` — `optimized_resume` + `ats_gap_report` columns;
+    `save_optimized_resume` / `get_optimized_resume` helpers
+  - `GET /api/jobs/{id}/resume_optimizer` — fetch gap report + rewrite
+  - `POST /api/jobs/{id}/resume_optimizer/generate` — queue rewrite task
+  - `GET /api/jobs/{id}/resume_optimizer/task` — poll task status
+  - `web/src/components/ResumeOptimizerPanel.vue` — gap report (all tiers),
+    LLM rewrite section (paid+), hallucination warning badge, `.txt` download
+  - `ResumeOptimizerPanel` integrated into `ApplyWorkspace`
+
+- **Vue SPA full merge** (closes #8) — `feature/vue-spa` merged to `main`
+  - `dev-api.py` — full FastAPI backend (settings, jobs, interviews, prep,
+    survey, digest, resume optimizer); cloud session middleware (JWT → per-user
+    SQLite); BYOK credential store
+  - `dev_api.py` — symlink → `dev-api.py` for importable module alias
+  - `scripts/job_ranker.py` — two-stage ranking for `/api/jobs/stack`
+  - `scripts/credential_store.py` — per-user BYOK API key management
+  - `scripts/user_profile.py` — `load_user_profile` / `save_user_profile`
+  - `web/src/components/TaskIndicator.vue` + `web/src/stores/tasks.ts` —
+    live background task queue display
+  - `web/public/` — peregrine logo assets (SVG + PNG)
+
+- **API test suite** — 5 new test modules (622 tests total)
+  - `tests/test_dev_api_settings.py` (38 tests)
+  - `tests/test_dev_api_interviews.py`, `test_dev_api_prep.py`,
+    `test_dev_api_survey.py`, `test_dev_api_digest.py`
+
+### Fixed
+- **Cloud DB routing** — `app/pages/1_Job_Review.py`, `5_Interviews.py`,
+  `6_Interview_Prep.py`, `7_Survey.py` were hardcoding `DEFAULT_DB`; now
+  use `get_db_path()` for correct per-user routing in cloud mode (#24)
+- **Test isolation** — `importlib.reload(dev_api)` in digest/interviews
+  fixtures reset all module globals, silently breaking `monkeypatch.setattr`
+  in subsequent test files; replaced with targeted `monkeypatch.setattr(dev_api,
+  "DB_PATH", tmp_db)` (#26)
+
+---
+
+## [0.7.0] — 2026-03-22
+
+### Added
+- **Vue 3 SPA — beta access for paid tier** — The new Vue 3 frontend (built with
+  Vite + UnoCSS) is now merged into `main` and available to paid-tier subscribers
+  as an opt-in beta. The Streamlit UI remains the default and will continue to
+  receive full support.
+  - `web/` — full Vue 3 SPA source (components, stores, router, composables,
+    views) from `feature/vue-spa`
+  - `web/src/components/ClassicUIButton.vue` — one-click switch back to the
+    Classic (Streamlit) UI; sets `prgn_ui=streamlit` cookie and appends
+    `?prgn_switch=streamlit` so `user.yaml` stays in sync
+  - `web/src/composables/useFeatureFlag.ts` — reads `prgn_demo_tier` cookie for
+    demo toolbar visual consistency (display-only, not an authoritative gate)
+
+- **UI switcher** — Reddit-style opt-in to the Vue SPA with durable preference
+  persistence and graceful fallback.
+  - `app/components/ui_switcher.py` — `sync_ui_cookie()`, `switch_ui()`,
+    `render_banner()`, `render_settings_toggle()`
+  - `scripts/user_profile.py` — `ui_preference` field (`streamlit` | `vue`,
+    default: `streamlit`) with round-trip `save()`
+  - `app/wizard/tiers.py` — `vue_ui_beta: "paid"` feature key; `demo_tier`
+    keyword arg on `can_use()` for thread-safe demo mode simulation
+  - Banner (dismissible, paid tier only) + Settings → System → Deployment toggle
+  - Caddy cookie routing: `prgn_ui=vue` → nginx Vue SPA; absent/`streamlit` →
+    Streamlit. 502 fallback clears cookie and redirects with `?ui_fallback=1`
+
+- **Demo toolbar** — slim full-width tier-simulation bar for `DEMO_MODE`
+  instances. Free / Paid / Premium pills let demo visitors explore all feature
+  tiers without an account. Persists via `prgn_demo_tier` cookie. Default: Paid
+  (most compelling first impression). `app/components/demo_toolbar.py`
+
+- **Docker `web` service** — multi-stage nginx container serving the Vue SPA
+  `dist/` build. Added to `compose.yml` (port 8506), `compose.demo.yml`
+  (port 8507), `compose.cloud.yml` (port 8508). `manage.sh build` now includes
+  the `web` service alongside `app`.
+
+### Changed
+- **Caddy routing** — `menagerie.circuitforge.tech` and
+  `demo.circuitforge.tech` peregrine blocks now inspect the `prgn_ui` cookie
+  and fan-out to the Vue SPA service or Streamlit accordingly.

-Automates the full job search lifecycle: discovery → matching → cover letters → applications → interview prep.
-Privacy-first, local-first. Your data never leaves your machine.
+---
+
+Job search is a second job nobody hired you for.
+
+ATS filters designed to reject. Job boards that show the same listing eight times. Cover letter number forty-seven for a role that might already be filled. Hours of prep for a phone screen that lasts twelve minutes.
+
+Peregrine handles the pipeline — discovery, matching, tracking, drafting, and prep — so you can spend your time doing the work you actually want to be doing.
+
+**LLM support is optional.** The full discovery and tracking pipeline works without one. When you do configure a backend, the LLM drafts the parts that are genuinely miserable — cover letters, company research briefs, interview prep sheets — and waits for your approval before anything goes anywhere.
+
+### What Peregrine does not do
+
+Peregrine does **not** submit job applications for you. You still have to go to each employer's site and click apply yourself.
+
+This is intentional. Automated mass-applying is a bad experience for everyone — it's also a trust violation with employers who took the time to post a real role. Peregrine is a preparation and organization tool, not a bot.
+
+What it *does* cover is everything before and after that click: finding the jobs, matching them against your resume, generating cover letters and prep materials, and once you've applied — tracking where you stand, classifying the emails that come back, and surfacing company research when an interview lands on your calendar. The submit button is yours. The rest of the grind is ours.
+
+> **Exception:** [AIHawk](https://github.com/nicolomantini/LinkedIn-Easy-Apply) is a separate, optional tool that handles LinkedIn Easy Apply automation. Peregrine integrates with it for AIHawk-compatible profiles, but it is not part of Peregrine's core pipeline.

+## Database Migrations
+
+Peregrine uses a numbered SQL migration system (Rails-style). Each migration is a `.sql` file in the `migrations/` directory at the repo root, named `NNN_description.sql` (e.g. `002_add_foo_column.sql`). Applied migrations are tracked in a `schema_migrations` table in each user database.
+
+### Adding a migration
+
+1. Create `migrations/NNN_description.sql` where `NNN` is the next sequential number (zero-padded to 3 digits).
+2. Write standard SQL — `CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`, `ALTER TABLE ADD COLUMN`, etc. Keep each migration idempotent where possible.
+3. Do **not** modify `scripts/db.py`'s legacy `_MIGRATIONS` lists — those are superseded and will be removed once all active databases have been bootstrapped by the migration runner.
+4. The runner (`scripts/db_migrate.py`) applies pending migrations at startup automatically (both FastAPI and Streamlit paths call `migrate_db(db_path)`).
+
+### Rollbacks
+
+SQLite does not support transactional DDL for all statement types. Write forward-only migrations. If you need to undo a schema change, add a new migration that reverses it.
+
+---
+
 ## What NOT to Do
 
 - Do not commit `config/user.yaml`, `config/notion.yaml`, `config/email.yaml`, `config/adzuna.yaml`, or any `config/integrations/*.yaml` — all are gitignored

+# Peregrine Vue 3 SPA Migration
+
+**Branch:** `feature/vue-spa`
+**Issue:** #8 — Vue 3 SPA frontend (Paid Tier GA milestone)
+**Worktree:** `.worktrees/feature-vue-spa/`
+**Reference:** `avocet/docs/vue-port-gotchas.md` (15 battle-tested gotchas)
+
+---
+
+## What We're Replacing
+
+The current Streamlit UI (`app/app.py` + `app/pages/`) is an internal tool built for speed of development. The Vue SPA replaces it with a proper frontend — faster, more accessible, and extensible for the Paid Tier. The FastAPI already exists (partially, from the cloud managed instance work); the Vue SPA will consume it.
+
+### Pages to Port
+
+| Streamlit file | Vue view | Route | Notes |
+|---|---|---|---|
+| `app/Home.py` | `HomeView.vue` | `/` | Dashboard, discovery trigger, sync status |
+| `app/pages/1_Job_Review.py` | `JobReviewView.vue` | `/review` | Batch approve/reject; primary daily-driver view |
+| `app/pages/4_Apply.py` | `ApplyView.vue` | `/apply` | Cover letter gen + PDF + mark applied |
+| `app/pages/5_Interviews.py` | `InterviewsView.vue` | `/interviews` | Kanban: phone_screen → offer → hired |
+| `app/pages/6_Interview_Prep.py` | `InterviewPrepView.vue` | `/prep` | Live reference sheet + practice Q&A |
+| `app/pages/7_Survey.py` | `SurveyView.vue` | `/survey` | Culture-fit survey assist + screenshot |
+| `app/pages/2_Settings.py` | `SettingsView.vue` | `/settings` | 6 tabs: Profile, Resume, Search, System, Fine-Tune, License |
+
+---
+
+## Avocet Lessons Applied — What We Fixed Before Starting
+
+The avocet SPA was the testbed. These bugs were found and fixed there; Peregrine's scaffold already incorporates all fixes. See `avocet/docs/vue-port-gotchas.md` for the full writeup.
+
+### Applied at scaffold level (baked in — you don't need to think about these)
+
+| # | Gotcha | How it's fixed in this scaffold |
+|---|--------|----------------------------------|
+| 1 | `id="app"` on App.vue root → nested `#app` elements, broken CSS specificity | `App.vue` root uses `class="app-root"`. `#app` in `index.html` is mount target only. |
+| 3 | `overflow-x: hidden` on html → creates scroll container → 15px scrollbar jitter on Linux | `peregrine.css`: `html { overflow-x: clip }` |
+| 4 | UnoCSS `presetAttributify` generates CSS for bare attribute names like `h2` | `uno.config.ts`: `presetAttributify({ prefix: 'un-', prefixedOnly: true })` |
+| 5 | Theme variable name mismatches cause dark mode to silently fall back to hardcoded colors | `peregrine.css` alias map: `--color-bg → var(--color-surface)`, `--color-text-secondary → var(--color-text-muted)` |
+| 7 | SPA cache: browser caches `index.html` indefinitely → old asset hashes → 404 on rebuild | FastAPI must register explicit `GET /` with no-cache headers before `StaticFiles` mount (see FastAPI section below) |
+| 9 | `navigator.vibrate()` not supported on desktop/Safari — throws on call | `useHaptics.ts` guards with `'vibrate' in navigator` |
+| 10 | Pinia options store = Vue 2 migration path | All stores use setup store form: `defineStore('id', () => { ... })` |
+| 12 | `matchMedia`, `vibrate`, `ResizeObserver` absent in jsdom → composable tests throw | `test-setup.ts` stubs all three |
+| 13 | `100vh` ignores mobile browser chrome | `App.vue`: `min-height: 100dvh` |
+
+### Must actively avoid when writing new components
+
+| # | Gotcha | Rule |
+|---|--------|------|
+| 2 | `transition: all` + spring easing → every CSS property bounces → layout explosion | Always enumerate: `transition: background 200ms ease, transform 250ms cubic-bezier(...)` |
+| 6 | Keyboard composables called with snapshot arrays → keys don't work after async data loads | Accept `getLabels: () => labels.value` (reactive getter), not `labels: []` (snapshot) |
+| 8 | Font reflow at ~780ms shifts layout measurements taken in `onMounted` | Measure layout in `document.fonts.ready` promise or after 1s timeout |
+| 11 | `useSwipe` from `@vueuse/core` fires on desktop trackpad pointer events, not just touch | Add `pointer-type === 'touch'` guard if you need touch-only behavior |
+| 14 | Rebuild workflow confusion | `cd web && npm run build` → refresh browser. Only restart FastAPI if `app/api.py` changed. |
+| 15 | `:global(ancestor) .descendant` in `<style scoped>` → Vue drops the descendant entirely | Never use `:global(X) .Y` in scoped CSS. Use JS gate or CSS custom property token. |
+
+---
+
+## FastAPI Integration
+
+### SPA serving (gotcha #7)
+
+When the Vue SPA is built, FastAPI needs to serve it. Register the explicit `/` route **before** the `StaticFiles` mount, otherwise `index.html` gets cached and old asset hashes cause 404s after rebuild:
+
+```python
+from pathlib import Path
+from fastapi.responses import FileResponse
+from fastapi.staticfiles import StaticFiles
+
+_DIST = Path(__file__).parent.parent / "web" / "dist"
+_NO_CACHE = {
+    "Cache-Control": "no-cache, no-store, must-revalidate",
+    "Pragma": "no-cache",
+}
+
+@app.get("/")
+def spa_root():
+    return FileResponse(_DIST / "index.html", headers=_NO_CACHE)
+
+# Must come after the explicit route above
+app.mount("/", StaticFiles(directory=str(_DIST), html=True), name="spa")
+```
+
+Hashed assets (`/assets/index-abc123.js`) can be cached aggressively — their filenames change with content. Only `index.html` needs no-cache.
+
+### API prefix
+
+Vue Router uses HTML5 history mode. All `/api/*` routes must be registered on FastAPI before the `StaticFiles` mount. Vue routes (`/`, `/review`, `/apply`, etc.) are handled client-side; FastAPI's `html=True` on `StaticFiles` serves `index.html` for any unmatched path.
+
+---
+
+## Peregrine-Specific Considerations
+
+### Auth & license gating
+
+The Streamlit UI uses `app/wizard/tiers.py` for tier gating. In the Vue SPA, tier state should be fetched from a `GET /api/license/status` endpoint on mount and stored in a Pinia store. Components check `licenseStore.tier` to gate features.
+
+### Discovery trigger
+
+The "Start Discovery" button on Home triggers `python scripts/discover.py` as a background process. The Vue version should use SSE (same pattern as avocet's finetune SSE) to stream progress back in real-time. The `useApiSSE` composable is already wired for this.
+
+### Job Review — card stack UX
+
+This is the daily-driver view. Consider the avocet ASMR bucket pattern here — approve/reject could transform into buckets on drag pickup. The motion tokens (`--transition-spring`, `--transition-dismiss`) are pre-defined in `peregrine.css`. The `useHaptics` composable is ready.
+
+### Kanban (Interviews view)
+
+The drag-to-column kanban is a strong candidate for `@vueuse/core`'s `useDraggable`. Watch for the `useSwipe` gotcha #11 — use pointer-type guards if drag behavior differs between touch and mouse.
+
+### Settings — 6 tabs
+
+Use a tab component with reactive route query params (`/settings?tab=license`) so direct links work and the page is shareable/bookmarkable.
+
+---
+
+## Build & Dev Workflow
+
+```bash
+# From worktree root
+cd web
+npm install        # first time only
+npm run dev        # Vite dev server at :5173 (proxies /api/* to FastAPI at :8502)
+npm run build      # output to web/dist/
+npm run test       # Vitest unit tests
+```
+
+FastAPI serves the built `dist/` on the main port. During dev, configure Vite to proxy `/api` to the running FastAPI:
+
+```ts
+// vite.config.ts addition for dev proxy
+server: {
+  proxy: {
+    '/api': 'http://localhost:8502',
+  }
+}
+```
+
+After `npm run build`, just refresh the browser — no FastAPI restart needed unless `app/api.py` changed (gotcha #14).
+
+---
+
+## Implementation Order
+
+Suggested sequence — validate the full stack before porting complex pages:
+
+1. **FastAPI SPA endpoint** — serve `web/dist/` with correct cache headers
+2. **App shell** — nav, routing, hacker mode, motion toggle work end-to-end
+3. **Home view** — dashboard widgets, discovery trigger with SSE progress
+4. **Job Review** — most-used view; gets the most polish
+5. **Settings** — license tab is the blocker for tier gating in other views
+6. **Apply Workspace** — cover letter gen + PDF export
+7. **Interviews kanban** — drag-to-column + calendar sync
+8. **Interview Prep** — reference sheet, practice Q&A
+9. **Survey Assistant** — screenshot + text paste
+
+---
+
+## Checklist
+
+Copy of the avocet gotchas checklist (all pre-applied at scaffold level are checked):
+
+- [x] App.vue root element: use `.app-root` class, NOT `id="app"`
+- [ ] No `transition: all` with spring easings — enumerate properties explicitly

+- [x] `overflow-x: clip` on html, `overflow-x: hidden` on body
+- [x] UnoCSS `presetAttributify`: `prefixedOnly: true`
+- [x] Product CSS aliases: `--color-bg`, `--color-text-secondary` mapped in `peregrine.css`
+- [ ] Keyboard composables: accept reactive getters, not snapshot arrays
+- [x] FastAPI SPA serving pattern documented — apply when wiring FastAPI
+- [ ] Font reflow: measure layout after `document.fonts.ready` or 1s timeout
+- [x] Haptics: guard `navigator.vibrate` with feature detection
+- [x] Pinia: use setup store form (function syntax)
+- [x] Tests: mock matchMedia, vibrate, ResizeObserver in test-setup.ts
+- [x] `min-height: 100dvh` on full-height layout containers
