- Partnership life events (marriage/divorce/engagement) now attach to the
couple's relationship, not each person. The add-event form asks for the
spouse, finds-or-creates the partnership, and writes ONE event on it — shown
on both partners' pages ("· with <spouse>"), entered once. Event values
(RELI/OCCU detail) now render too.
- Family-view pedigree orders parents deterministically (father on top, mother
below, stable fallback when gender is unknown) instead of by which link was
created first.
Frontend only — no migration.

- Sidebar bottom-left now shows the signed-in user; clicking opens a menu with
Settings and Sign out. New /settings page: account info + change password
(POST /auth/change-password, re-verifies current password). Export/restore/
delete are stubbed there for the next pass.
- Per-tree default/home person: tree.home_person_id (migration) + TreeUpdate/
Read; the tree and family views open focused on it; the person page gets a
"Set as default" control and "Default person" badge. Cleared if that person
is deleted. Complements the account-level "this is me" link.
- Tree visualization now fills the content area (AppShell drops the max-width
column on the /tree route); other pages stay centered.
- Audit records are coerced JSON-safe (UUIDs/enums), so PATCHing UUID fields
like home_person_id audits cleanly.
50 backend tests pass; migration up/down verified; frontend builds.

- Add a top-level "Import" entry to the sidebar and a global /import page, so
you can start a tree from a GEDCOM without first creating an empty one. The
import flow now picks its destination (new tree, or an existing one) — the
tree-scoped page reuses the same <GedcomImport> with a fixed destination and
keeps Export.
- Extract the sidebar chrome into <AppShell> and give small screens a working
menu: a hamburger opens the full sidebar as a slide-in drawer (it was just a
logo + "Trees" link before). Used by both /trees and /import.

Duplicate detection (the "merge / skip / overwrite" the user asked for):
- New POST /gedcom/preview dry-runs the file and flags incoming people that
resemble existing ones (name similarity via difflib + birth-year guard;
high/medium score). No writes.
- /gedcom/import takes default_action (new|skip|merge|overwrite) + per-xref
resolutions {xref: {action, target_id}}:
new create as a new person (current behavior)
skip link families to the existing person, copy nothing
merge attach the incoming names (as alternates), events, citations,
and notes onto the existing person
overwrite soft-delete the existing person, import the incoming one fresh
Relationship creation is deduped so a merge can't double an edge.
Richer record mapping (covers the user's repo's GEDCOM):
- Multiple NAME records honor their TYPE; _MARNM (and NICK) import as typed
alternate names — maiden stays primary, married becomes a "married" Name.
- RELI -> a "religion" event with the value in detail; OCCU/EDUC values too.
- NOTE -> person notes (and event notes); NOTE/RELI are no longer "unmapped".
- Export round-trips name TYPE.
Verified against the user's 2185-person export: 0 unmapped tags. 48 tests pass.

Names (the genealogy standard: maiden name primary, married/alias as typed
alternates):
- Name model already supported multiple typed names; expose full CRUD —
NameCreate/Read/Update schemas, name_service (one-primary invariant,
promote-on-delete), nested /persons/{id}/names routes.
- Person page gains a Names card: add/edit/delete + "make primary", with a
curated name_type dropdown (birth/maiden, married, alias, nickname, …).
Self-person ("who am I"):
- users.self_person_id FK (use_alter for the users<->persons<->trees cycle)
+ migration; PATCH /users/me/self-person; "This is me" / "This is you"
on the person page. Soft-deleting the linked person clears it.
Deletion integrity (fixes the broken tree view):
- delete_person now soft-deletes the relationships touching the person, so no
dangling edges remain; family-chart also filters links to missing people.
- Optional cascade=true recursively deletes descendants (GEDCOM cleanup);
the person page asks "only this person" vs "with all descendants".
- DELETE returns {deleted: n}.
Family view surfaces "Not connected to anyone" so dangling people aren't lost.

- Tree page: add a "Find a person" search box that jumps the chart to a
match and rebuilds the hourglass (parents/grandparents/partner/children)
around them. Clicking any card recenters via family-chart's default
behavior (setAncestryDepth 3 / setProgenyDepth 2), syncing focus through
setAfterUpdate for the "Open profile" link.
- Person detail: replace the relationship "add" <select> with a
type-to-filter PersonCombobox so long people lists are searchable.
- Person detail: gender is now a Male/Female dropdown, not free text.

Person detail: an Edit form for name + gender + living status + privacy, and inline edit of each life event (type + structured date). Family view: the add-relative buttons now search existing people (link the real person) or create new — preventing duplicate spouses/parents — and adding a child to someone with one spouse links both parents.

Tree page gets Landscape/Portrait/Fan toggles: landscape & portrait via family-chart's orientation; a hand-rolled radial Fan chart of ancestors (rings per generation, click to recenter). Clicking a card recenters and updates an 'Open <name> →' link to that person's profile. The People directory search now hits the server-side pg_trgm fuzzy endpoint (debounced) so it spans the whole tree, not just the loaded page.

Researched how FamilySearch/Geni/MyHeritage lay out trees (switchable pedigree/portrait/fan, an interactive canvas with pan/zoom + click-to-recenter, gender colors, birth-death years) and built a real Tree page on the MIT d3 library family-chart instead of a flat list. Ancestors + descendants around a focus person, click any card to recenter, drag to pan, scroll to zoom — scales to large imported trees. Tree is now the first per-tree sidebar item and the default when opening a tree; People keeps the searchable directory + add/edit.

A flat wrap of every person didn't scale to imported trees. Replace it with a bounded (max-height, scrollable) searchable directory: clean name + birth–death-year rows, focus highlight, a result count, and a 200-row cap with a 'refine your search' notice so a thousand-person tree stays fast and usable.

An Import/Export page (sidebar) that defaults to importing into a NEW tree to avoid duplicating existing people, with an explicit 'append to this tree' option (warned), a mapping-report display (counts + skipped tags), and a one-click .ged export download.

Rebuilds the family view's pedigree as a recursive bracket chart with CSS connector lines — focus links to its two parents (2 lines), and each parent links to its two parents (4 lines to grandparents). Fixes the prior ambiguity where grandparent slots weren't tied to a specific parent: now every parent shows its own two parent slots, so a person clearly has up to four grandparents grouped by lineage. Height-robust connectors (each leaf draws its own spine half + stub).

The People page is no longer a flat list: it's a focus-person family view with a pedigree of ancestors (parents + grandparents), a spouse/partner panel, and a children panel — with inline 'add parent/child/spouse' (creates the person + the relationship), click-to-refocus, birth–death years, and a searchable people index. Modeled on how real genealogy tools center on a person and let you walk the graph.
Adds delete/restore UI: a Delete on the person page, per-tree delete + a 'Recently deleted' restore section on the trees list, and a Recovery page (sidebar) for deleted people.

Replaces the centered single-column of full-width cards with a proper application layout: a persistent left sidebar (Trees, and per-tree People/Sources/Media, with the tree name and sign-out) and a constrained content column. Marketing landing and auth pages are split out (own header/footer; centered auth with the logo).
Adds a Media gallery (upload + image thumbnails / file tiles, served via the backend content endpoint). Events are no longer free-text: a curated event-type list (+ custom) and a structured date (qualifier + day/month/year) that composes a proper genealogical date. Regenerated the OpenAPI client.

New /trees/[id]/sources page (list + create sources). Person-detail page now loads tree sources + citations and shows a '✓ N sourced' badge with an inline cite picker (source + page) on each event and on the person. Tree view links to Sources. Regenerated the OpenAPI client.

Replaces the default black/gray with the docs/brand palette: warm ink text on paper surfaces, bronze accent, serif headings and the Origin-mark wordmark in the header, favicon, and the 'where it came from matters' tagline. Light/dark adapt via CSS vars (ink/paper flip); bronze and paper are constant. Tailwind v4 @theme exposes bronze/paper/ink tokens and the serif stack. Buttons/inputs/cards restyled to match; brand SVGs vendored into public/.

Next.js (App Router) + React 19 + TypeScript + Tailwind v4, with shadcn-style UI primitives (Button, Input, Card, Label via cva/tailwind-merge). A typed API client is generated from the backend OpenAPI spec with openapi-typescript + openapi-fetch (npm run gen:api); the committed openapi.json/schema.d.ts are the snapshot.
Views: landing, login, register, tree list + create, and tree detail with person list + create. Auth rides the same-origin HttpOnly session cookie the backend sets (Caddy proxies /api/*), so no token handling in JS. Built as a standalone container. Mobile-first; next build is clean.
