- Read-only markdown files mount as Toast UI Viewer, which already
has no edit toolbar / no caret — the absence is itself the cue.
Drop the explicit red banner; keep the disabled-Save tooltip.
- YAML front-matter textarea no longer shows a placeholder example
(title/date/tags). A file without front matter renders as a
genuinely empty pane instead of looking like it has content.
- YAML editor's banner stays — CodeMirror readOnly has no
built-in visual signal beyond the disabled caret.

Listing JSON gains a writable bool per file row, computed by running
the policy decider with ActionWrite against the parent-dir chain
(with the same admin-bypass branch the file API uses). Cost: one
extra decider call per file in the listing, sharing the parent
chain so the cascade walk is amortized.
Browse loader stores writable on every tree node. The markdown and
YAML editors read it and gate their canSave + initial mount:
- !writable markdown → Toast UI Viewer (rendered, no edit toolbar,
no caret). Banner above explains why save is disabled.
- !writable YAML → CodeMirror readOnly:'nocursor' (selection for
copy, no caret). Banner above explains why save is disabled.
Both editors gain autofocus:false so keyboard nav in the browse
tree doesn't divert into the editor — arrow keys keep moving through
files and folders without the caret jumping. User clicks (or tabs)
into the editor when they actually want to type.
.zddc files already route through preview-yaml's isZddcFile path;
bare .zddc (no ext) matches because that function checks the
literal name.

Three tools (archive, browse, classifier) independently implemented
an empty-state pattern with three different CSS class naming
conventions and slightly different rules:
archive: .empty-state + .empty-state-content (BEM-less)
browse: .empty-state + .empty-state__inner (BEM)
classifier: .empty-state + .empty-state-content (BEM-less)
Same visual intent ("nothing's loaded yet — here's a welcome card
with instructions"), implemented three times with subtly different
spacing, no shared body styling for h2/p/ul/li, and incompatible
class names that prevented a future tool from copy-pasting the
pattern.
Promote a single consolidated rule set to shared/base.css using
BEM naming throughout:
.empty-state — base (flex centered, padding)
.empty-state--overlay — modifier: position absolute,
top 50px to clear app-header,
z-index 10. Used by archive
and classifier (their empty
states sit OVER the main
layout).
.empty-state__inner — content card (left-aligned,
text-muted, max-width 640)
.empty-state__inner--centered — modifier: tighter max-width
500, centered text, 2rem
padding. Used by tools whose
welcome screen reads as a
centered card.
.empty-state__inner h2/p/ul/ol/li — typography defaults
.empty-state__inner .note — italic small-print
.welcome-list — bullet list with left-aligned
text + auto margins; safe to
nest inside a centered card.
Per-tool changes:
- archive/template.html, archive/js/app.js: rename
.empty-state-content → .empty-state__inner empty-state__inner--centered;
add .empty-state--overlay to the outer .empty-state container.
Also the runtime-injected unsupported-browser markup in
showUnsupportedBrowserMessage() and the showHttpErrorState
selector.
- classifier/template.html: same renames.
- archive/css/layout.css + components.css: delete .empty-state*
and .welcome-list rules (now in shared).
- classifier/css/layout.css: same. Keep .empty-state.drag-over
locally — classifier is the only tool whose empty state acts
as a drop target.
- browse/css/base.css: delete .empty-state* (shared covers it).
browse's template was already using .empty-state__inner so no
template change needed.
LOC: shared/base.css gains ~70 lines; per-tool overrides lose ~85
combined. Net -15. More importantly, future tools can reuse the
pattern by adding two divs and (optionally) the --centered or
--overlay modifiers; no copy-paste required.

Two more half-contract leaks surfaced by sweeping shared chrome class
usage across tools:
1. form/ had its own design-token namespace (--color-primary,
--color-bg, --color-text, --color-border, --color-bg-alt,
--color-text-muted) defined nowhere but fallback'd to hardcoded
hex values different from shared (#1e3a5f vs shared's #2a5a8a).
Form's buttons, inputs, fieldsets, array-row borders, and status
colors all rendered with subtly different palette than the rest
of the suite.
Form also redefined .btn, .btn-primary, and a (form-local)
.btn-small class — the redefinition shadowed shared/base.css's
button system entirely. Form's JS used 'btn btn-small' for the
add/remove row buttons in form-array widgets.
Fixes:
- form/css/form.css: rename every --color-* reference to the
matching shared token (--primary, --bg, --bg-secondary, --text,
--text-muted, --border, --radius, --danger, --success).
- form/css/form.css: delete the .btn / .btn-primary / .btn-small
blocks entirely. Shared covers .btn / .btn-primary /
.btn-secondary / .btn-sm / .btn-lg / .btn-link.
- form/js/array.js: switch the row add/remove buttons to
'btn btn-sm btn-secondary' so they pick up shared's sizing
and outline variant.
- tests/form-safety.spec.js: update the selector
button.btn-small → button.btn-sm.
2. browse/ had .hidden { display: none !important; } — exact
duplicate of shared/base.css's rule. Delete the redundant copy
(left a one-line comment pointer in case anyone wonders why
it's missing from the local sheet).

A new HTML tool — browse — that lists the contents of any directory.
Designed for ZDDC archives but no ZDDC-specific filtering; just a
straight folder browser with expand/collapse, sort, and name filter.
Modes (auto-detected at page load):
- Online: when served by zddc-server at a folder URL, queries
the same URL with Accept: application/json to load the listing
and renders it. Auto-served as the default at any directory
under ZDDC_ROOT without an index.html (replacing the previous
minimal-HTML stub from directory.go).
- Local: 'Select Directory' button uses FileSystemAccessAPI to
pick any folder on disk; works in Chromium-based browsers.
Features (Phase 1 — what's in this commit):
- Tree view with lazy-loaded folders (children fetched on first
expand).
- Sort by name / size / extension / date (column header click).
- Filter by name substring (toolbar input).
- File click opens in a new tab — for server-backed pages,
routes through zddc-server's normal handler so .archive
redirects + apps cascade overrides + ACL all apply.
Phase 2 deferred:
- ZIP files inline expansion (treat archive entries as virtual
children).
- File preview popup (reuse shared/preview-lib.js).
- Extension multi-select filter.
Wiring:
- browse/ added to top-level ./build's per-tool list, embed
block, versions.txt, and the lockstep release commit + tag set.
All seven tools (archive, transmittal, classifier, mdedit,
landing, form, browse) advance together on stable cuts.
- shared/build-lib.sh: browse added to ZDDC_RELEASE_TOOLS and
verify_channel_links's per-tool loop.
- zddc/internal/apps/embed.go: //go:embed browse.html +
EmbeddedBytes("browse") case.
- zddc/internal/apps/availability.go: browse available at every
directory (same as archive).
- zddc/internal/apps/handler.go: MatchAppHTML routes
/<dir>/browse.html → 'browse'.
- zddc/internal/handler/directory.go: when a directory request
arrives with Accept: text/html and no index.html exists,
serve the embedded browse.html bytes (with a JSON-fallback
if the embedded slot is empty during bootstrap).
