PostCard and PostModal competed for the same data and rendered redundant
chrome (header twice, image grid twice, attachment list twice). The wider
PostCard layout we shipped 2026-05-27 has enough real estate to be the
canonical post surface, so collapse the two into one.
Compact (default) state is unchanged: hero + 3-cell rail + truncated
title + 3/5-line description + attachment count badge. Whole-card click
expands in place. Expanded state shows: full title, mosaic of ALL post
images via PostImageGrid (uncapped, lazy-loaded via getPostFull), full
sanitized-HTML description with paragraph wrapping, attachments as
downloadable pill links. Click the chevron in the header to collapse;
mosaic image clicks open ImageViewer scoped to the post (modalStore's
postImageIds path is preserved — only the comment changed).
Per-card local state — no global modal store. Each PostCard owns its
own expanded ref and lazy-loaded detail; collapsing a card discards
neither (so re-expand is instant after the first fetch).
Deleted: PostModal.vue, postModal.js store. Removed the App.vue mount.
AppSnackbar mounts once at the app root and exposes a window.__fcToast
function the stores call from error paths. This avoids prop-drilling a
toast emitter through every component while keeping the snackbar
component itself testable in isolation.
GalleryGrid renders shimmer-skeleton placeholders on initial load so the
first paint isn't empty. Skeleton uses the same auto-fill grid columns
as the real items so layout doesn't shift when content arrives.
Modal arrow nav now ignores text-entry elements so typing in the tag
autocomplete doesn't navigate prev/next. Small-screen breakpoint
(<600px) tightens gallery thumbnails to 120px min.

Curator signature accent (#A87338, aged amber) is baked into
fabled-tokens.js. Vuetify theme consumes the same tokens module the rest
of the SPA does, so updating design system tokens propagates throughout.
Vite dev server proxies /api and /ws to the Quart backend.
App.vue references AppShell (lands in Task 9) and main.js references
router.js (lands in Task 9) — these are intentionally split so Task 8 is
the framework scaffold and Task 9 is the navigation/shell content.
