thePR0M3TH3ANandClaude Opus 5 eb67dac576 docs: bridge README to the TypeScript rebuild; banner the Python-era docs
The README had zero mentions of the TypeScript implementation -- on the
branch proposing to make it the main line, a reader (including PR #989's
reviewers) would find only the Python product. A bridge section near the top
now says what the rebuild is, its status (under independent review; do not
put irreplaceable secrets in it yet), and where the migration guide, the
vault/identity spec, and the cutover plan live. Deliberately a bridge, not a
rewrite: everything below it still accurately describes the Python version,
which is what install.sh installs today. Advertising the TS implementation
as the product before its review lands would be docs describing an
aspirational state -- the exact failure mode this branch has been stamping
out.

The 14 Python-era planning docs most likely to mislead (tui_v2/v3,
index0/atlas, semantic) carry a one-line legacy banner so a reader can tell
a historical record from a living document.

The full TS-first rewrite -- README, landing page, docs triage, CI scoping,
dependabot config -- is specced as a merge-day checklist under the cutover
item in TODO.md, so main never advertises a stale product in either
direction.

TUI v2 Legacy Parity Matrix

Legacy (Python implementation). This document describes the Python version, which retires to legacy/ after the TypeScript cutover (PR #989). The TypeScript interactive mode follows the classic v1 menus; TUI v2/v3, index0/atlas, and semantic search were not ported. Kept as historical record.

Status: In progress (2026-03-02)
Branch: beta

Purpose: map legacy interactive workflows to Textual TUI v2 equivalents and isolate remaining gaps.

Summary

  • Implemented: core daily workflows are covered in TUI v2 (add/retrieve/search/modify/archive, reveal/QR, 2FA board, settings/profile/relay/sync, export/import/checksum paths).
  • Partial: a few legacy menu affordances are represented differently in v2 (palette-first vs nested menus).
  • Gaps: no active medium/high functional parity gaps; current work is UI refinement and operator ergonomics.

Prioritized Gap Queue

No active medium/high functional parity gaps are currently identified in this matrix. Remaining UX work is tracked in docs/tui_v2_ui_refresh_plan.md (Phase 5 interactive tree navigation + final visual polish).
