A mode is a starting point, never a lock and never applied again on its own. modeStatus() (runtime)
compares the flags with the mode's preset: custom, what re-applying turns on and off, and which of
those the preset gained in an update since it was applied. mode_set keeps the preset of that moment
(modes.json "preset", flag names only, bounded; forgotten when the mode changes). Settings, the
first-run screen and the app menu's Mode row show Custom; Re-apply lists what it turns on and off
before it writes anything; a preset that grew is mentioned once on the mode row (Review), never applied.
Tests: exact match, changed by the owner, preset grew, choice made before the preset was kept.
The entry opens the notes in the page; its keywords carry the paused flags of that area. English
for the three new words; the other catalogs follow with the words step.
- create-waybetter: the generated app has a feature table (one area, one feature, three modes), a feature module, the registry in its runtime, the cards and the first-run screen in its panel
- waybetter i18n rename --map <file> [--copy]: keys move or are copied in every catalog with each language's own value
- feature context: win (no globals in a module), text() for a feature's words (t('...') is read as a whole catalog key by the i18n tools)
- probes: `when` (only counts while the part of the page it lives in is there)
- cards: a caret, an empty area says its features come later; the first-run screen takes the whole panel
- featureTable.ts: areas, per-feature flags, core flags, modes as presets; sparse storage, ownership (an area that is off turns off what it owns), mode switching that keeps or drops manual changes, table validation
- featureModules.ts: createFeatureRegistry (flag + surface gating, scoped context, palette commands under the area with a budget of 5, settings dialog, probes, hotfix selector overrides and kill flags)
- settingsForm.ts: a settings schema normalizes stored values and draws the controls from the UI kit
- domHub observeSelector; api.observe goes through the shared hub (a root of the caller's own keeps its observer)
- createFeatureFlags: a delivery is the whole state (a flag it does not name is at its default), resolve() for ownership, current()
