## Summary
- focus existing Prism window instead of creating duplicates
- stream OS/window events into the Prism System Events tab with live
updates and cleanup
- cap event feed history and add context text for the live bus feed
## Testing
- Not run (not requested)

Added production-grade documentation for architecture and extension:
**ARCHITECTURE.md (500+ lines):**
- Complete system overview and design principles
- 7-layer architecture breakdown
- File structure and boot sequence
- Window management lifecycle
- Event system and lifecycle hooks
- Component library philosophy
- Configuration system details
- Theme system mechanics
- Data flow (mock → real API)
- Extension points for v0.2.0 and v0.3.0
**EXTENDING.md (600+ lines):**
- Step-by-step guide: Adding a new app
- Step-by-step guide: Adding a new component
- Step-by-step guide: Connecting real APIs
- Step-by-step guide: Adding mock data
- Step-by-step guide: Creating custom themes
- Event bus usage patterns
- Keyboard shortcut registration
- Best practices (10 key principles)
- Quick reference card
**README.md updates:**
- Updated to v0.1.1 with new features highlighted
- Added accessibility badge
- Referenced ARCHITECTURE.md and EXTENDING.md
- Expanded component examples
- Updated technical details
**Documentation Philosophy:**
- AI agent-friendly (clear, step-by-step instructions)
- Human-friendly (examples, best practices, warnings)
- Production-ready (covers architecture, not just usage)
- Future-proof (clear v0.2.0/v0.3.0 roadmap)
This documentation enables any developer (human or AI) to:
1. Understand the OS architecture
2. Add new apps and components
3. Connect real backend APIs
4. Extend and customize the system
5. Follow established best practices
Created Config system for API endpoints and feature flags:
**js/config.js:**
- Centralized app metadata (version 0.1.1)
- Feature flags for toggling functionality
- API endpoint registry for all services
- App-specific default configurations
- Keyboard shortcuts registry
- Helper methods: getAppConfig(), isFeatureEnabled(), getApiEndpoint()
**Configuration Categories:**
1. FEATURE_FLAGS - toggle features without code changes
2. API_ENDPOINTS - backend service URLs (currently mock, ready for real)
3. APPS - default window sizes, refresh intervals, thresholds
4. THEME - theme settings
5. SYSTEM - notification duration, clock format, limits
6. SHORTCUTS - keyboard shortcut definitions
**Benefits:**
- Single source of truth for environment settings
- Easy to switch mock ↔ real APIs
- Feature flag-based development
- Apps can read Config instead of hardcoding values
- Preparation for v0.2.0 real API integration
**Updated index.html:**
- Load config.js first in dependency chain
- Updated load order comment
This establishes the extension point for connecting real backends.
Upgraded component library with accessibility-first approach:
**New Components:**
- LoadingState() - async operation indicator with spinner
- ErrorState() - error display with retry button
**Enhanced Existing Components:**
- Comprehensive JSDoc for all 15 components
- ARIA attributes (role, aria-label, aria-live, etc.)
- Keyboard navigation (Tab, Enter, Space, Arrow keys)
- Input validation (Badge type validation, Grid child validation)
- Table custom render functions and empty state handling
- List keyboard accessibility for clickable items
- Tabs full keyboard navigation (Arrows, Home, End)
- Button icon support and disabled state
- SidebarLayout with complementary/main roles
**Improvements:**
- All interactive components are keyboard-accessible
- Screen reader support via ARIA
- Consistent JSDoc format with @param, @returns, @example
- Examples for every component
- Philosophy documentation at file top
- Logging on component library initialization
Components now form a true design system that agents and humans can
confidently use to build accessible apps.
