Backlog — showcase hardening

Ordered work packages that take this POC from "good" to reference showcase: CIBG design-system fidelity, DDD/FP consistency, Storybook as curriculum, and WCAG compliance with automated gates. Source: the architecture/CIBG/a11y audit of 2026-07-02 (plan: "Showcase hardening").

This backlog supersedes docs/SHOWCASE-ROADMAP.md.

Session protocol

• Switch to Opus first (/model opus) before tackling any WP.
• One WP per session. Read CLAUDE.md, this README, the WP file, and the WP's "Read first" list — then execute. Do not start the next WP in the same session.
• The Decisions block in each WP is pre-made — don't relitigate it.
• A WP ends GREEN (below) with its acceptance criteria checked off and its Status updated to done (+ commit hash).
• No WP leaves a lint rule/check disabled without an inline justification comment and a cross-reference to the WP that will remove it.

GREEN (global definition of done)

npm run lint && npm run check:tokens && npm test && npm run build && npm run build-storybook

From WP-01 onward, additionally:

npm run test-storybook:ci

Backend stays untouched throughout (frontend-only backlog); cd backend && dotnet test only needs re-running if a WP unexpectedly touches backend/.

Order

Gates land before the work they cover; each lint rule lands in the same WP as the fixes for its existing violations, so every WP ends green.

WP	Title	Phase	Status
WP-01	Axe-on-every-story CI gate	0 · gates	done
WP-02	Harden check:tokens + fix what it catches	0 · gates	done
WP-03	Boundaries I: contracts purity + ApiClient confinement	0 · gates	done
WP-04	Boundaries II: ui ↛ infrastructure + showcase sanction	0 · gates	done
WP-05	Parse-don't-validate closure + MDX	1 · FP/DDD	todo
WP-06	Generic async template contexts — kill $any()	1 · FP/DDD	todo
WP-07	Brief on the shared idioms + RemoteData MDX	1 · FP/DDD	todo
WP-08	One store idiom + machine naming + TEA MDX	1 · FP/DDD	todo
WP-09	Pure-logic closure: dates + missing command specs	1 · FP/DDD	todo
WP-10	CIBG button fidelity	2 · CIBG	todo
WP-11	CIBG markup fidelity: application-link + absent-class triage	2 · CIBG	done
WP-12	CIBG Datablock for application data	2 · CIBG	done
WP-13	CIBG-gap register + hygiene + MDX	2 · CIBG	todo
WP-14	Storybook taxonomy reorg + Layers MDX	3 · Storybook	todo
WP-15	Missing stories: shell + brief components	3 · Storybook	todo
WP-16	Component a11y: description wiring + alert role	4 · a11y	todo
WP-17	App-level a11y: route focus, template lint, WCAG checklist	4 · a11y	todo

Sequencing dependencies (stated in the WPs too): 01 before 10–15 (axe covers story churn); 03/04 before 05–09 (boundaries stop new violations during refactors); 06 before 07 (typed <app-async> before brief adopts it); 13 defines the gap-marker format that 11/12 reference — if 11/12 run first, they define it and 13 adopts it.
