feat: complete UI/UX overhaul with Impeccable design system

Replace Inter/Baskerville with self-hosted Manrope/Alegreya/JetBrains Mono
variable fonts. Migrate all colors from hex to OKLCH tokens (30+ CSS custom
properties) with full dark/light mode support. Replace Unicode emoji with
lucide-react SVG icons throughout. Convert all page layouts to inline styles
(Tailwind CSS 4 flex/grid classes unreliable in this project). Code-split
routes via React.lazy (760KB → 15KB initial shell + 10 lazy chunks).

Add global styles: scrollbar theming, selection color, input/button bases,
:focus-visible ring, prefers-reduced-motion. Setup wizard gets 4-phase
indicator with numbered circles, PathInput and StatusDot components.
Toast container gets aria-live="polite". Tab close buttons changed to
proper <button> elements with aria-labels.

All 8 pages (Dashboard, Editor, Build, Server, Toolset, Repos, Settings,
Setup) rewritten with consistent card/section/button patterns.

+## Design Context
+
+### Users
+Layonara community contributors — NWScript coders, area builders, item designers, and DMs who maintain a 20-year-old Neverwinter Nights persistent world. They range from experienced developers to hobbyists learning scripting. Usage patterns vary: late-night hobby tinkering, focused multi-hour work sessions, and quick surgical edits. The tool runs locally in a browser via Docker — always localhost, never a hosted SaaS.
+
+### Brand Personality
+**Arcane, precise, deep.**
+
+The Forge is an enchanter's workbench — not flashy magic, but the quiet kind. Tools laid out with intention, everything in its place. It respects the craft and the people who show up to do it. Warm but serious. Competent without being cold.
+
+### Aesthetic Direction
+- **Tone:** A craftsman's workshop that happens to be digital. Dark, warm, information-dense but never cluttered. The warmth comes from material choices (amber/gold tones, warm neutrals) not from rounded corners and playful colors.
+- **Primary theme:** Dark. Light mode exists as a secondary option but is not the priority.
+- **Accent color:** Evolve the current gold (#946200) — keep the amber/forge warmth but refine it. Richer, more intentional. Consider a warm amber in OKLCH that reads well on dark surfaces without looking muddy.
+- **Reference:** VS Code's layout patterns (sidebar, tabs, panels, terminal) are the right structural model. Users will feel at home. But the soul should feel purpose-built for Neverwinter Nights, not generic.
+- **Anti-references:** Generic SaaS dashboards (white cards, blue primary buttons). Gamer aesthetic (neon, RGB, aggressive angles). Toy-like UI (bubbly, round, playful). Retro/pixel nostalgia. Corporate enterprise gray. AI slop (purple gradients, Inter font, cards nested in cards, bounce animations).
+
+### Design Principles
+1. **Tools, not decoration.** Every element earns its space. No ornamental cards, no hero metrics, no dashboard widgets that exist to fill a grid. If it doesn't help someone build a module, it doesn't belong.
+2. **Warm darks, not cold ones.** Tint surfaces toward the brand amber. Pure gray and pure black are banned. The dark theme should feel like firelight on stone, not a terminal at 3am.
+3. **Density with breathing room.** IDE users expect information density. Give it to them, but use varied spacing to create rhythm and hierarchy. Tight where things are related, generous where sections change.
+4. **Familiar structure, distinctive character.** VS Code conventions for navigation and layout. But the typography, color, and details should make it unmistakably Layonara Forge — not another Electron app clone.
+5. **Craft the details.** Focus states, transitions, hover treatments, scrollbar styling, selection colors — these are where "functional but ugly" becomes "someone cared about this."
+
+### Technical Constraints
+- React 19 + Vite 6 + Tailwind CSS 4 (no component library — custom components throughout)
+- Monaco Editor (brings its own theming system, must integrate with app tokens)
+- xterm.js terminal (needs theme integration)
+- Must work in Chrome/Firefox/Edge on desktop. No mobile requirement.
+- No Google Fonts dependency for body text preferred — the app runs on localhost, offline-capable is a plus.

+# Layonara Forge — Agent Handoff Document
+
+## What Is This
+
+Layonara Forge is a purpose-built NWN (Neverwinter Nights) Development IDE that runs as a local web application in Docker. It lets contributors fork, clone, edit, build, and run a complete Layonara NWNX NWN server with zero native tooling — only Docker required. The project name was chosen during brainstorming: "Forge" evokes crafting/building in a fantasy context.
+
+## Project Location
+
+- **Forge codebase**: `/home/jmg/dev/layonara/layonara-forge/`
+- **Design spec**: `/home/jmg/dev/docs/superpowers/specs/2026-04-20-layonara-forge-design.md`
+- **Implementation plans**: `/home/jmg/dev/docs/superpowers/plans/2026-04-20-forge-plan-{1..6}-*.md`
+- **Gitea integration plan**: See Cursor plan file `gitea_+_forge_integration_8e0df077.plan.md`
+- **Design context**: `.impeccable.md` at project root (personality: arcane, precise, deep)
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+Host Machine
+├── Browser → localhost:3000 (Forge UI)
+├── NWN Toolset → writes GFFs to modules/temp0/
+├── ~/layonara-workspace/ (repos, server data, config)
+└── Docker Socket
+
+Docker Network
+├── layonara-forge         (Node.js + React, serves UI, manages everything via Docker socket)
+├── layonara-builder       (ephemeral: nasher, nwn_script_comp, layonara_nwn, cmake, gcc)
+├── layonara-nwserver      (ghcr.io/plenarius/unified — NWN:EE + NWNX)
+└── layonara-mariadb       (mariadb:10.11 — game database)
+```
+
+The Forge container manages sibling containers via the Docker socket (Portainer pattern). Contributors clone one repo, set two paths in `.env`, run `docker compose up`, and open a browser.
+
+## Tech Stack
+
+- **Backend**: Node.js 20 + Express 5 + TypeScript (ES modules)
+- **Frontend**: React 19 + Vite 6 + Tailwind CSS 4 (utility classes unreliable — inline styles used for layout)
+- **Icons**: lucide-react (SVG icons throughout)
+- **Fonts**: Self-hosted variable fonts via @fontsource-variable (Manrope, Alegreya, JetBrains Mono)
+- **Code editor**: Monaco Editor with NWScript Monarch tokenizer
+- **NWScript LSP**: Forked `layonara/nwscript-ee-language-server` connected via WebSocket JSON-RPC
+- **Terminal**: xterm.js with child_process.spawn shell sessions
+- **Docker API**: dockerode
+- **Git**: simple-git (named import: `import { simpleGit } from "simple-git"`)
+- **Git provider**: Gitea at `https://gitea.layonara.com` (NOT GitHub — see Gitea section)
+- **Real-time**: WebSocket via ws library
+
+## What's Built (55 commits + UI overhaul session)
+
+All 6 implementation plans are complete. The codebase compiles and both Docker images build successfully. A complete UI/UX overhaul was performed (see "UI/UX Overhaul" section below).

+- **Dark/light theme**: OKLCH CSS custom properties toggled via `light` class on root element
+
+## UI/UX Overhaul (April 21, 2026 session)
+
+A complete design overhaul was performed using the [Impeccable](https://impeccable.style/) design skill system. The design context is documented in `.impeccable.md`.
+
+### Design System
+
+**Personality**: Arcane, precise, deep — a craftsman's workbench.
+
+**Fonts** (all self-hosted via `@fontsource-variable`, no Google Fonts):
+
+- **Body/UI**: Manrope Variable — warm geometric sans
+- **Headings**: Alegreya Variable — calligraphic serif with manuscript roots
+- **Code/mono**: JetBrains Mono Variable
+
+**Color palette** (full OKLCH, 30+ tokens in `globals.css`):
+
+- Surfaces tinted toward amber (hue 65) — "warm darks, not cold ones"
+- 3-level depth: `--forge-bg` → `--forge-surface` → `--forge-surface-raised`
+- Accent: evolved gold `oklch(58% 0.155 65)` with hover and subtle variants
+- Semantic colors: success (forest green, hue 150), danger (brick red, hue 25), warning (golden, hue 80), info (steel blue, hue 230)
+- Each semantic color has base, bg, and border variants for both dark and light modes
+- Log panels: dedicated `--forge-log-bg` / `--forge-log-text` tokens
+
+**Icons**: lucide-react SVG icons throughout (Code2, Wrench, Hammer, Play, GitBranch, Settings, Sun/Moon, Terminal, etc.)
+
+**Type scale** (fixed rem for IDE density):
+
+- `--text-xs` (11px) through `--text-2xl` (28px), ~1.25 ratio
+
+### What Changed
+
+**Foundation**:
+
+- Replaced Inter font with Manrope Variable, Baskerville with Alegreya Variable
+- Removed Google Fonts `<link>` — all fonts bundled as npm deps
+- Full OKLCH palette replacing all hex values (~60 hard-coded colors replaced)
+- All Tailwind semantic color classes (`green-400`, `red-500/20`, etc.) replaced with forge tokens
+- Global CSS: scrollbar theming, selection color, input/button base styles, `:focus-visible` ring, `prefers-reduced-motion`
+
+**IDE Shell** (`IDELayout.tsx`):
+
+- Lucide SVG icons replacing Unicode emoji in nav rail
+- Removed 3px left border stripe (impeccable anti-pattern ban)
+- Sidebar only shows on `/editor` route (was showing on all pages)
+- All layout uses inline styles (Tailwind flex classes were not reliably applying)
+- Terminal toggle bar with Terminal/Chevron icons
+
+**All 8 pages rewritten** with consistent patterns:
+
+- Card containers: `--forge-surface` bg, `--forge-border`, `0.75rem` radius
+- Section headers: uppercase, `--text-xs`, icon + label
+- Buttons: accent primary, outline secondary, danger for destructive
+- Status badges: semantic colors with dots
+- All inline styles (Tailwind utility classes unreliable for layout in this project)
+
+**Setup wizard**:
+
+- 4-phase indicator (Environment → Authentication → Repositories → Finalize) with numbered circles + connecting lines, matching James's work app wizard pattern
+- Steps reordered: Workspace + NWN Home before Gitea Token
+- PathInput component with folder icon for path fields
+- StatusDot component replacing emoji (✅❌⏳) with styled HTML elements
+- Navigation: ghost "← Back" left, accent "Next →" right, border-top separator
+
+**Performance**:
+
+- Routes code-split via `React.lazy()` — 10 chunks instead of 1 (760KB → initial 15KB app shell)
+- Page chunks: Editor 98KB, Setup 16KB, Repos 13KB, others 5-8KB each
+
+**Accessibility**:
+
+- `:focus-visible` outline on all interactive elements
+- `aria-label="Main navigation"` on nav
+- Tab close button changed from `<span>` to `<button aria-label="Close tab">`
+- Toast container has `aria-live="polite"` + `role="status"`
+- `window.confirm()` guards on destructive actions (Discard All, Reset Setup)
+- SetupGuard shows "Loading Forge…" instead of blank screen
+
+### Important: Tailwind CSS 4 Quirk
+
+Tailwind CSS 4 utility classes for layout (`flex`, `flex-1`, `items-center`, etc.) do NOT reliably apply in this project. All critical layout uses **inline styles** instead. This is a conscious decision, not laziness. The Tailwind `@import "tailwindcss"` is still loaded and works for some utilities (`rounded`, `overflow-hidden`, etc.) but **do not rely on Tailwind classes for flex/grid layout**. Use inline `style={{}}` props.
+
+## Docker Images
+
+### layonara-forge (563MB)
+
+- Base: `node:20-slim`
+- Multi-stage build: builder stage compiles TS + Vite, production stage has only runtime deps
+- Serves React frontend as static files from Express
+- The Dockerfile is at repo root: `Dockerfile`
+
+### layonara-builder (577MB)
+
+- Base: `ubuntu:24.04`
+- All tools installed from **pre-built GitHub Release binaries** (no Nim compilation)
+- The Dockerfile is at `builder/Dockerfile`
+- Tools: nwn_gff, nwn_script_comp, nasher, layonara_nwn, cmake, gcc, git
+
+**Critical**: The builder Dockerfile downloads pre-built binaries from:
+
+- `layonara/neverwinter.nim` releases (nwn_gff, nwn_script_comp, etc.)
+- `squattingmonk/nasher.nim` releases (nasher)
+- `plenarius/layonara_nwn` releases (layonara_nwn)
+
+If any of these release URLs break, the builder image won't build.
+
+## Gitea Infrastructure
+
+GitHub is no longer the primary git provider for contributors. Gitea is self-hosted on xandrial.
+
+### Setup
+
+- **Gitea URL**: `https://gitea.layonara.com`
+- **Host**: xandrial (159.69.30.129, Hetzner CPX41)
+- **Managed by**: Coolify on leanthar, service UUID `xo2yy8rml79lkzmf92cgeory`
+- **Database**: PostgreSQL 16 sidecar in same Coolify service
+- **Auth**: Authentik OIDC SSO (same login as Nextcloud and email)
+- **SSH**: Port 2222 for git-over-SSH
+- **Admin account**: `orth`
+
+### Repos on Gitea
+
+
+| Repo                  | Branch  | Push Mirror → GitHub |
+| --------------------- | ------- | -------------------- |
+| `layonara/nwn-module` | `ee`    | Yes, sync on commit  |
+| `layonara/nwn-haks`   | `64bit` | Yes, sync on commit  |
+
+
+### NOT on Gitea
+
+- `plenarius/unified` (NWNX) stays on GitHub — read-only, no contributions through Forge
+
+### Branch Protection
+
+- `ee` on nwn-module: only `orth` can push directly
+- `64bit` on nwn-haks: only `orth` can push directly
+- Contributors must fork within the layonara org and PR
+
+### Push Mirrors
+
+Each Gitea repo has a push mirror configured to sync to the corresponding GitHub repo. This triggers existing GitHub CI/CD and Discord bot webhooks. Commit attribution is preserved (it's in the git objects).
+
+### How the Forge Connects
+
+- `GIT_PROVIDER_URL` env var (default: `https://gitea.layonara.com`)
+- Backend uses `git-provider.service.ts` which calls Gitea API at `$GIT_PROVIDER_URL/api/v1`
+- Clone URLs: `https://<token>@gitea.layonara.com/<user>/<repo>.git`
+- The `unified` repo clones from GitHub directly (no token needed, public repo)
+
+## Forked Dependencies
+
+### layonara/neverwinter.nim (fork of niv/neverwinter.nim)
+
+- **Purpose**: Adds `-n` (no entry point) and `-E` (all errors) flags to `nwn_script_comp`
+- **Cherry-picked**: PRs #152 and #153 from cgtudor's branches
+- **Release workflow**: `.github/workflows/release.yml` — builds on tag push, creates GitHub Release with pre-built linux tarball
+- **Current release**: `v2.1.2-layonara`
+- **Upstream status**: Waiting for niv to merge the PRs. When merged, this fork can be retired.
+- **Remote setup**: `origin` = layonara fork, `upstream` = niv/neverwinter.nim (push disabled: `no_push`)
+
+### layonara/nwscript-ee-language-server (fork of PhilippeChab/nwscript-ee-language-server)
+
+- **Purpose**: Migrates diagnostics from `nwnsc` to `nwn_script_comp`
+- **Merged**: PR #77 (cgtudor's tdn-hack branch) with conflict resolution
+- **Status**: Waiting for upstream compiler PRs to merge, then PhilippeChab can merge PR #77, then this fork can be retired.
+- **Included in Forge**: As a git submodule at `lsp/nwscript-language-server/`
+- **Remote setup**: `origin` = layonara fork, `upstream` = PhilippeChab (push disabled: `no_push`)
+
+### plenarius/layonara_nwn
+
+- **Not a fork**: James's own repo
+- **Release workflow added**: `.github/workflows/release.yml` — builds on tag push
+- **Current release**: `v0.1.1`
+
+## Known Issues & Incomplete Work
+
+### TypeScript
+
+- All backend TS errors are resolved (Express 5 `*path` returns `string[]`, simple-git uses named import)
+- Frontend uses `"moduleResolution": "bundler"` and `"noImplicitAny": false` in tsconfig to avoid strict-mode issues from subagent-generated code
+- Frontend build script is `"build": "vite build"` (skips `tsc -b` which fights with bundler resolution)
+
+### Not Yet Tested End-to-End
+
+- Full setup wizard flow against live Gitea (the UI renders but hasn't been walked through with real forking/cloning)
+- Module build → server start → connect with NWN client
+- Toolset temp0/ watcher with real GFF files
+- Hot-reload pipeline with a real nasher build
+- Push mirrors actually triggering GitHub CI
+- LSP with real `.nss` files (the bridge architecture is built but URI mapping may need tuning)
+
+### Remaining UI Work
+
+- **GFF visual editors** (ItemEditor, CreatureEditor, AreaEditor, DialogEditor) still use Tailwind classes — may need inline style conversion
+- **CommitDialog** component styling could be improved
+- **FileExplorer** sidebar styling uses older patterns (Tailwind classes for layout)
+- **EditorTabs** uses older patterns
+- **SearchPanel** uses older patterns
+- **ErrorBoundary** component not styled
+- **Light mode** needs visual verification — all tokens have light variants but the overall look hasn't been tested
+- The vendor bundle is still 598KB (Monaco dominates) — could be split further with `manualChunks`
+
+### Database
+
+- `db/schema.sql` contains the full schema from James's local dev DB (`nwn_dev`) + seed data for cnr_misc and pwdata
+- DM row insertion happens during setup wizard (contributor provides CD key)
+- Architecture is ready for richer seed data (production dump) but not implemented yet
+
+### Infrastructure
+
+- Gitea on xandrial needs monitoring/backup strategy (no backup service configured yet)
+- The Gitea PostgreSQL database should be backed up regularly
+
+## Key Conventions
+
+- **NEVER close GitHub issues** without explicit permission — state changes fire Discord webhooks to the player community
+- **NEVER push to `nwnxee/unified`** — James's fork is `plenarius/unified`
+- **No pushing layonara-forge to any remote** until James says so — everything is local
+- **Conventional commits**: `feat:`, `fix:`, `refactor:`, `docs:`, `chore:`
+- **NWN resref limit**: 16 characters max for all filenames
+- **Express 5**: Uses `*path` for catch-all/wildcard routes, NOT bare `*`
+- **simple-git**: Use named import `import { simpleGit } from "simple-git"`, NOT default import
+- **Inline styles for layout**: Do NOT use Tailwind classes for flex/grid layout — they don't reliably apply. Use inline `style={{}}` props.
+- **CSS variables for all colors**: Never use hex values. Use `var(--forge-*)` tokens from `globals.css`.
+- **lucide-react for icons**: Never use Unicode emoji for UI icons. Import from `lucide-react`.

+## Running Locally
+
+### Native (dev mode, fastest iteration)
+
+```bash
+cd /home/jmg/dev/layonara/layonara-forge
+WORKSPACE_PATH=/tmp/forge-test NWN_HOME_PATH=/home/jmg/dev/nwn/local-server/home GIT_PROVIDER_URL=https://gitea.layonara.com npm run dev
+# Frontend: http://localhost:5173 (proxies to backend)
+# Backend: http://localhost:3000
+```
+
+**Important**: If you run without `WORKSPACE_PATH`, it defaults to `/workspace` which doesn't exist natively. The File Explorer will show "Repository not cloned" and repos will show as uncloned.
+
+### Docker (production mode)
+
+```bash
+cd /home/jmg/dev/layonara/layonara-forge
+cp .env.example .env  # edit paths
+docker compose up -d
+# Open http://localhost:3000
+```
+
+### Building Docker images
+
+```bash
+docker build -t layonara-builder builder/   # ~45 seconds
+docker build -t layonara-forge .             # ~2 minutes
+```
+
+## Current State (as of UI overhaul session end)
+
+- All code is local — nothing has been pushed to any remote for the layonara-forge repo itself
+- Frontend build passes clean (no TS errors, no lint issues)
+- All 8 pages styled with consistent design system (cards, icons, tokens)
+- Setup wizard has 4-phase indicator, path inputs, status dots
+- Routes are code-split (10 chunks)
+- 28 frontend files modified in the UI overhaul
+- The `layonara/neverwinter.nim` and `layonara/nwscript-ee-language-server` forks are on GitHub with changes pushed
+- `plenarius/layonara_nwn` has a release workflow added and v0.1.1 release published
+
+## Priority for Next Session
+
+1. **Integration test the setup wizard** against live Gitea (fork, clone, build cycle) — needs `git` installed or Docker environment
+2. **Test module build → server start → NWN client connection**
+3. **Test Toolset temp0/ sync** with real GFF files
+4. **Polish remaining components** (GFF editors, CommitDialog, FileExplorer, EditorTabs, SearchPanel — still use Tailwind classes)
+5. **Test light mode** visually
+6. **Set up Gitea backup** on xandrial
