 - **`hooks/useSidebar.ts`** — Module-singleton with Set<setState> subscriber pattern; one bus subscription guarded by `globalThis.__boocode_sidebar_subscribed` for HMR safety. Every new `SessionEvent` type needs a `case` in the `applyEvent` switch (no-op `return prev` is fine).
 - **`api/client.ts`** — Centralized typed fetch wrapper. All endpoints under `api.*` namespace.
 
+Font / CSS pipeline (apps/web):
+- Tailwind v4's `@import "tailwindcss"` directive strips font URLs from subsequent CSS `@import`s — `@fontsource*` packages must be imported as JS side-effect modules in `apps/web/src/main.tsx`, not via `@import` in `globals.css`. Otherwise the woff2 files never make it to `dist/`.
+- Lightning CSS (inside `@tailwindcss/postcss` v4) collapses contiguous unicode-ranges to wildcard shorthand (`U+0000-FFFF` → `U+????`), which iOS Safari/Vivaldi mishandles (silently drops the font from those codepoints). Use explicit non-wildcard-collapsible subranges (e.g. `U+2500-259F` not `U+2500-25FF`). The `apps/web` build script greps `dist/assets/*.css` for `U+2500-259F` and fails the build if missing — preserve that guard.
+- `@font-face` blocks must live AFTER all `@import` statements (CSS spec). Earlier placement silently breaks every subsequent `@import` (this broke the 18 theme palette imports in globals.css for one session).
+- JetBrainsMono Nerd Font self-hosted in `apps/web/src/fonts/` (TTF from ryanoasis/nerd-fonts release) — needed because `@fontsource-variable/jetbrains-mono` ships subsetted woff2s that don't cover `U+2500-259F` (box drawing + block elements, used by opencode's banner). "NL" = No Ligatures (matches `font-feature-settings: "liga" 0`); "Mono" = single-cell icon width so TUI layouts don't desync.
+- xterm-addon-webgl rasterizes glyphs via Canvas2D into a GPU texture atlas. Canvas2D does NOT honor `font-display: block` — it uses whatever font is currently registered. Gate xterm initialization on `document.fonts.load(<font-name>)` resolving before calling `term.open()` (see `fontsReady` useState in `TerminalPane.tsx`). iOS Safari/Vivaldi also reclaims WebGL contexts from backgrounded tabs: keep `webgl.onContextLoss(() => webgl.dispose())` + recreate via visibilitychange. Do NOT manually dispose+recreate the addon after font load — iOS silently fails the second GL context creation and the terminal drops to DOM renderer with stale metrics.

 - node-pty's compiled `.node` is libc-specific: proddeps and runtime Dockerfile stages must share libc (alpine↔musl or bookworm-slim↔glibc); the TS-only builder stage can stay alpine for speed.
 - pnpm 10 `--frozen-lockfile` skips node-pty's postinstall — the Docker proddeps stage runs `cd node_modules/node-pty && npm run install` to force the native compile.
 - A local PreToolUse hook (`security_reminder_hook.py`) regex-flags Node's older `child_process` spawn helpers as unsafe (false positive even on the File-suffixed variant). Use `spawn` — it's accepted.
+- `/opt/boolab` hosts a working sibling BooCode terminal at `boocode.indifferentketchup.com`. Useful for visual side-by-side comparison on the same iPhone when debugging booterm rendering. Boolab uses Tailwind v3 (`@tailwind base`); boocode uses v4 — many subtle build differences. Don't assume parity.
+- booterm SSHs to the host as `samkintop@100.114.205.53` (the Tailscale IP). The hostname `ubuntu-homelab` (shown in the bash prompt after login) does NOT resolve from inside the container — only the host's `/etc/hosts` knows it. Override via `BOOTERM_SSH_HOST` / `BOOTERM_SSH_USER` env vars in docker-compose if you ever move the shell to a different machine.
