 | 2026-03-21 | P1.1 | Completed | Replaced the legacy token root with semantic background, surface, text, border, focus, shadow, and semantic accent ramps while keeping compatibility aliases for incremental migration. |
 | 2026-03-21 | P1.2 | Completed | Switched the app to Fraunces, IBM Plex Sans, and IBM Plex Mono with distinct display, body, UI, and code font roles instead of one shared heading font. |
 | 2026-03-21 | P1.3 | Completed | Added explicit light, dark, and system theme modes in the token layer and introduced a scoped `ThemeState` service for later shell controls. |

 ### Lessons Learned
 
@@ -51,6 +52,7 @@ It is intentionally implementation-focused:
 - `localStorage` access is currently page-local and ad hoc. Theme, recents, pins, and table context need one shared storage boundary before more UI work starts.
 - The old typography setup coupled display and utility text under a single token. The new shell work needs separate display and UI font roles to avoid decorative type in controls.
 - Theme mode selection can be prepared independently of persistence. Splitting those concerns keeps the theme CSS and the storage wiring reviewable.
+- Shared UI state events in Blazor should stay synchronous unless the event contract is async-aware. Layout refresh can be triggered safely with `InvokeAsync(StateHasChanged)` from a synchronous handler.
