TODO.md had reached 1050 lines and 72 open items across 28 sections, read mostly on a phone. It is now a directory: todo/<theme>/<item>.md, one card per file, with frontmatter carrying id, status, created date and order, and the prose body copied across verbatim. TODO.md becomes a generated index (bun run todo:index). Dates: where an item's prose stated one it is used; otherwise its old section's; otherwise 2026-08-20, floored at the day before the split rather than invented. date_source records which. Shaped for a two-way Kanban board, filed as todo/tooling — a card is a file, id is the identity, frontmatter is the machine's half and the body is the owner's.

**Renaming a panel key is a silent data migration, and the repair is destructive.** A saved layout
|
|
holds `appType` strings. `normalizeLayout` replaces any appType not in the allow-list with the
|
|
caller's `fallback`, and `WorkspaceView.tsx:97` writes that back — so a renamed key turns every
|
|
saved layout into N copies of whichever panel is `allowed[0]`, permanently, on one page load.
|
|
Renaming `headscale-*` → `offscale-*` did exactly this: `/offscale` rendered three server pickers,
|
|
`ServersView` never mounted, and it survived every restart because the code was correct and the
|
|
data was not (2026-08-17, `ed3806f9`).
|
|
|
|
Plugin screens are now cleared at install, which covers plugins and nothing else. The general fix
|
|
is a rule about wholesale mismatch: **a layout in which NO panel has a recognised appType is
|
|
residue from older code — discard it and use the screen's default**, rather than collapsing it.
|
|
`fallback: allowed[0]` is arbitrary (it is whatever `panels.ts` happens to list first) and should
|
|
probably not be a per-panel substitution at all.
