## Badge Enhancements - Added status variants: active, ended, success, warning, error, info, pending - active: Green background (carbon-green-dark) for active rooms/sessions - ended: Gray background for completed/inactive items - success/warning/error/info: Semantic status colors - pending: Subtle gray with border for pending states ## Toast Enhancements - Added Carbon-styled variants: success, error/destructive, warning, info - Each variant has colored left border for quick visual identification: - success: green (#42be65) - destructive: red (#fa4d56) - warning: yellow (#f1c21b) - info: blue (#0f62fe) - Added ToastIcon component with variant-specific icons - Updated ToastViewport to bottom-right positioning per CodePair Blueprint - Updated ToastAction, ToastClose, ToastTitle, ToastDescription with Carbon colors - Exported ToastIcon and toastVariants for external use ## Toaster Updates - Integrated ToastIcon into toast rendering - Toasts now display appropriate icons based on variant type Build Status: ✅ npm run build passes

## Theme Transformation - Replaced violet/purple accent with gold (#F1CB59, #F3D66E) - Background: #101010 (dark charcoal) - Surfaces: #171717 (cards/sections) - Borders: #2A2A2A (subtle borders) - Text: #F5F5F5 (primary), #A3A3A3 (muted) ## Updated Files ### app/globals.css - Replaced violet/purple/cyan/magenta colors with gold palette - --gold, --gold-light, --gold-dark variables - Updated gradient: gold-based hero gradient - Updated ring/glow effects with gold tones - Fixed focus-ring utility to use primary (gold) ### tailwind.config.ts - Changed primary.DEFAULT from hard-coded orange to var(--primary) - Added gold, gold-light, gold-dark color mappings - Removed violet, violet2, magenta, cyan mappings ### components/ui/button.tsx - Updated focus rings from violet to primary (gold) - Updated button variants: - default: Gold CTA with font-semibold - link: Gold hover color - interviewCoder: Gold gradient with updated styling ### components/ui/card.tsx - Removed hard-coded text-black/45 from CardTitle - Now uses text-foreground for theme consistency ### components/ui/input.tsx - Replaced carbon-* colors with semantic tokens (border, background, foreground, muted-foreground) - Updated focus rings from violet to primary (gold) - FloatingLabelInput: Uses card background - NumberInput: Uses card background ### components/ui/toast.tsx - Updated focus rings from violet to primary - Replaced carbon-* colors with semantic tokens ### components/ui/toggle-switch.tsx - Updated toggle track from violet to primary (gold) - Updated checkbox from violet to primary (gold) - Replaced carbon-* colors with semantic tokens - Updated focus rings to gold ### app/layout.tsx - Added className="dark" to <html> tag to enforce dark mode ## Build Status ✅ npm run build passes successfully

…ility ## Problem - Background was appearing white/gray instead of dark charcoal - CSS variables were in hex format (#101010) but Tailwind expects HSL values - When Tailwind uses hsl(var(--background)), it needs space-separated HSL values ## Solution - Converted all theme variables to HSL format: - --background: 0 0% 6% (was #101010) - --foreground: 0 0% 96% (was #F5F5F5) - --card: 0 0% 9% (was #171717) - --primary: 48 87% 65% (was #F1CB59 gold) - --border: 0 0% 16% (was #2A2A2A) - All other theme tokens converted to HSL ## Result ✅ Dark charcoal background now displays correctly ✅ Gold accents work properly with Tailwind utilities ✅ Build passes successfully

utils/embeddings.ts

+    if (!text || typeof text !== 'string') {
+      console.warn("getEmbeddings received invalid text:", text);
+      text = "";
+    }


Setting empty string silently after warning defeats the purpose of validation. The function should either throw an error or return a specific error result instead of continuing with invalid input. This could lead to unexpected behavior downstream where embeddings for empty text may not be meaningful.

middleware.ts

+  if (process.env.NODE_ENV !== "production") {
+    return NextResponse.next();
+  }


Disabling rate limiting entirely in non-production environments could mask rate limiting issues during testing. Consider using a more permissive limit in development rather than completely bypassing the protection.

components/ui/input.tsx

+            htmlFor={inputId}
+            className="absolute -top-2 left-2 bg-carbon-bg-secondary px-1 text-xs text-carbon-text-secondary"


The FloatingLabelInput uses bg-carbon-bg-secondary but the standard Input component uses bg-background. This inconsistency could cause visual issues if the Carbon colors aren't properly defined or if the component is used in contexts where the Carbon theme isn't active.

Suggested change

className="absolute -top-2 left-2 bg-carbon-bg-secondary px-1 text-xs text-carbon-text-secondary"

className="absolute -top-2 left-2 bg-background px-1 text-xs text-carbon-text-secondary"

+  const [isGenerating, setIsGenerating] = useState(false);
+


The manual chat implementation replaces the useChat hook but loses built-in features like automatic retry, error handling, and message persistence. Consider documenting why the manual implementation was chosen and what features are intentionally omitted.

Suggested change

/**

* Note: This component uses a manual chat implementation instead of the `useChat` hook

* from `@ai-sdk/react` to keep tighter control over the UI state and network calls

* (e.g., integration with React Query and custom loading behavior).

*

* As a result, some features that `useChat` would normally provide are intentionally

* omitted here, including:

* - automatic retry logic for failed requests

* - built-in, centralized error handling

* - automatic message persistence / history management

*

* If these features are needed in the future, consider migrating this component to

* use `useChat` or re‑introducing them manually in this layer.

Using non-null assertion (!) on environment variable is risky. If the variable is missing, it will fail at runtime. Add explicit validation and throw a descriptive error if the API key is missing.

Suggested change

const genAI = new GoogleGenerativeAI(process.env.GOOGLE_GENERATIVE_AI_API_KEY!);

const apiKey = process.env.GOOGLE_GENERATIVE_AI_API_KEY;

if (!apiKey) {

console.error("Google Generative AI API key is missing. Please set the GOOGLE_GENERATIVE_AI_API_KEY environment variable.");

return NextResponse.json(

{ error: "Server misconfiguration: missing AI API key" },

{ status: 500 }

tailwind.config.ts

        primary: {
-          DEFAULT: "rgb(251 146 60)",
-          foreground: "hsl(var(--primary-foreground))",
+          DEFAULT: "var(--primary)",
+          foreground: "var(--primary-foreground)",
        },


The primary color is changed from a hardcoded RGB value to CSS variables, but this creates inconsistency with the Carbon colors which are defined as strings. This mixed approach (CSS vars vs direct color values) makes it harder to understand which colors will be used throughout the app.

+    window.addEventListener("scroll", handleScroll);

This can be simplified to setIsScrolled(window.scrollY > 0) for better readability and to follow common JavaScript patterns.

Suggested change

if (window.scrollY > 0) {

setIsScrolled(true);

}

else {

setIsScrolled(false);

}

};

window.addEventListener("scroll", handleScroll);

setIsScrolled(window.scrollY > 0);

Hardcoding the dark mode class prevents users from choosing their preferred theme. Consider implementing theme toggle functionality or respecting the user's system preference with prefers-color-scheme.

The dark theme variables duplicate the root variables with identical values. Since the HTML element has className='dark' hardcoded, the root variables are never used. Either remove the duplication or implement proper theme switching.

- Removed overflow-scroll from parent containers - Added overflow-y-auto to each panel (sidebar, PDF viewer, chat) - Each section now scrolls independently based on mouse position - Improved UX: users can scroll sidebar without affecting PDF or chat Fixes issue where scroll affected all panels simultaneously

- Three independently resizable panels (sidebar, PDF, chat) - Built with react-resizable-panels library - Size constraints: sidebar (15-35%), PDF (min 30%), chat (20-40%) - Visual feedback on resize handles with hover effects - Automatic localStorage persistence - Independent scrolling maintained for each panel

- Replaced inline layout with ChatLayout component - Kept page.tsx as server component (data fetching) - Removed unused component imports (ChatComponent, ChatSideBar, PDFViewer) - Clean separation: server handles data, client handles interactivity - All functionality preserved, zero breaking changes

- RESIZABLE_COLUMNS_INVESTIGATION.md: research and planning - RESIZABLE_COLUMNS_IMPLEMENTATION_18JAN2026.md: complete session report - Includes: step-by-step process, challenges faced, solutions applied - Transparency: documented API confusion and how it was resolved - Full code listings and testing results

Critical fix for non-functional resize in ChatLayout: ROOT CAUSE: - Parent container had 'flex' class competing with Group's flex layout - Tailwind 'h-full' classes overriding library's flex-basis sizing - Two flex contexts causing layout calculation failures FIXES APPLIED: 1. Removed 'flex' from parent div (let Group control layout) 2. Changed Group to inline styles (avoid Tailwind class issues) 3. Removed 'h-full' from Panels (let library manage heights) DIFFERENCE FROM POSTMORTEM: - This uses react-resizable-panels LIBRARY, not custom implementation - Issue was CSS conflicts, NOT event listener architecture - Postmortem case (69c984c) was custom useRef+useEffect bug WHY IT WORKS NOW: - Single flex context (only Group applies flex) - Library controls all panel dimensions via flex-basis - No competing height/width declarations - Inline styles ensure dimensions apply correctly TECHNICAL DETAILS: - Library uses flex-basis percentages for panel sizing - Explicit height: 100% conflicts with flex-grow behavior - Nested flex contexts break internal size calculations - Tailwind classes may not apply to custom components reliably Refs: RESIZABLE_COLUMNS_DEBUG_FIX_19JAN2026.md for full analysis

Complete investigation and resolution documentation: SECTIONS COVERED: - Problem identification (resizable not working) - Postmortem comparison (custom vs library implementation) - Root cause analysis (CSS conflicts, not event listeners) - Step-by-step debugging process - Solution explanation with code examples - Library internals deep dive (react-resizable-panels) - Lessons learned (when to apply patterns vs when not to) KEY INSIGHTS: - Library issues ≠ Custom implementation issues - Similar symptoms can have completely different root causes - Don't blindly apply patterns from similar-looking problems - Always identify implementation type before debugging HONEST DOCUMENTATION: - Initial confusion about which pattern to apply - Why postmortem case didn't apply here - What was actually wrong (CSS not JS) - How to prevent similar issues in future TECHNICAL DEPTH: - Flex layout conflicts explained - Library sizing mechanism (flex-basis) - CSS specificity with Tailwind - Container dimension requirements Full transparency maintained throughout analysis.

- Removed react-resizable-panels dependency (saved 12KB) - Reverted page.tsx to inline fixed-flex layout - Sidebar: flex-[1], PDF: flex-[6], Chat: flex-[3] - Preparation for custom resize implementation

Created custom resize implementation following patterns from POSTMORTEM_CODE_EDITOR_REFACTOR.md (commit 69c984c) Key Pattern Applied: - Event listeners added/removed IMMEDIATELY in handlers (not useEffect) - useRef for drag state (avoids re-renders) - useEffect ONLY for unmount cleanup New Files: - hooks/useResizable.ts: Custom resize hook * Width clamping (200-500px) * localStorage persistence * Proper event listener lifecycle - components/ui/resize-handle.tsx: Visual separator * Hover effects (blue indicator) * Accessibility attributes * Cursor feedback Modified: - ChatLayout.tsx: Rewritten to use custom hook * Sidebar: dynamic pixel width (resizable) * PDF + Chat: fixed 6:3 ratio (not resizable) - page.tsx: Updated to use ChatLayout component * Remains server component (data fetching) * Clean server/client separation Why Custom vs Library: - Learning objective (understand mechanics) - Full control over behavior - Smaller bundle size (-11KB net savings) - Apply proven patterns from previous work

Complete step-by-step documentation of custom resize implementation Sections: - Executive summary (what/why) - Phase-by-phase implementation process - POSTMORTEM patterns explained (event listener bug fix) - Code architecture and data flow - Technical comparison (library vs custom) - Testing checklist - Lessons learned - Future enhancements Key Documentation: - Why we chose custom over library (learning objective) - Critical bug from postmortem (useEffect + ref timing) - Correct pattern (immediate listener management) - Decision rationale (two-panel vs three-panel) - Performance considerations - Honest trade-offs assessment Total time: ~2 hours (implementation + documentation)

Critical bug fix: resize handle only worked in one direction (right). Root Cause: - Used e.clientX directly as width (absolute screen position) - Mouse blocked by sidebar itself when dragging left - Result: Could grow sidebar but not shrink it Fix: - Store startX and startWidth on mousedown - Calculate deltaX = e.clientX - startX - Calculate newWidth = startWidth + deltaX - Now works bidirectionally with proper clamping Similar to POSTMORTEM pattern but corrected for horizontal layout.

+   * Note: This component uses a manual chat implementation instead of the `useChat` hook
+   * from `@ai-sdk/react` to keep tighter control over the UI state and network calls
+   * (e.g., integration with React Query and custom loading behavior).
+   *
+   * As a result, some features that `useChat` would normally provide are intentionally
+   * omitted here, including:
+   * - automatic retry logic for failed requests
+   * - built-in, centralized error handling
+   * - automatic message persistence / history management
+   *
+   * If these features are needed in the future, consider migrating this component to
+   * use `useChat` or re‑introducing them manually in this layer.
