-# Tailwind Color Migration Plan
-
-## Overview
-Migrate from hardcoded hex colors to Tailwind's semantic color palette for better maintainability and consistency.
-
-## Color Mapping Strategy
-
-### Primary Color Scale (Zinc - Neutral grays)
-```
-#1a1a1a (15 uses) → zinc-900    (oklch(0.21 0.006 285.885))
-#1e1e1e (6 uses)  → zinc-850    (between 800-900)
-#252525 (4 uses)  → zinc-800    (oklch(0.274 0.006 286.033))
-#2a2a2a (20 uses) → zinc-800    (oklch(0.274 0.006 286.033))
-#333    (32 uses) → zinc-700    (oklch(0.37 0.013 285.805))
-#444    (15 uses) → zinc-600    (oklch(0.442 0.017 285.786))
-#666    (8 uses)  → zinc-500    (oklch(0.552 0.016 285.938))
-#888    (21 uses) → zinc-400    (oklch(0.705 0.015 286.067))
-#999    (5 uses)  → zinc-400    (oklch(0.705 0.015 286.067))
-#aaa    (5 uses)  → zinc-300    (oklch(0.871 0.006 286.286))
-#ccc    (10 uses) → zinc-200    (oklch(0.92 0.004 286.32))
-#ddd    (18 uses) → zinc-200    (oklch(0.92 0.004 286.32))
-#fff    (21 uses) → white       (oklch(1 0 0))
-```
-
-### Accent Colors
-```
-#646cff (31 uses) → indigo-500  (oklch(0.637 0.202 272.317))
-#535bf2 (4 uses)  → indigo-600  (oklch(0.574 0.231 274.009))
-#8b5cf6 (3 uses)  → violet-500  (oklch(0.627 0.246 293.04))
-```
-
-### Semantic Colors
-```
-#dc3545 (4 uses)  → red-600     (oklch(0.593 0.243 27.325))
-#28a745 (legacy)  → green-600   (oklch(0.643 0.179 149.579))
-```
-
-### User-Settable Highlight Colors (Keep as CSS Variables)
-```
---highlight-color-mine: #ffff00        → Keep (yellow-400)
---highlight-color-friends: #f97316     → Keep (orange-500) ✓ Already Tailwind!
---highlight-color-nostrverse: #9333ea  → Keep (purple-600) ✓ Already Tailwind!
-```
-
-## Migration Strategy
-
-### Phase 1: Setup Tailwind Theme Extension (30 min)
-1. **Extend Tailwind config** with semantic color names
-   ```js
-   theme: {
-     extend: {
-       colors: {
-         'app-bg': 'zinc-900',
-         'app-bg-elevated': 'zinc-800',
-         'app-border': 'zinc-700',
-         'app-border-subtle': 'zinc-600',
-         'app-text': 'zinc-200',
-         'app-text-secondary': 'zinc-400',
-         'app-text-muted': 'zinc-500',
-         'primary': 'indigo-500',
-         'primary-hover': 'indigo-600',
-       }
-     }
-   }
-   ```
-
-2. **Update CSS variables** in `variables.css` to reference Tailwind colors
-   ```css
-   :root {
-     /* Use Tailwind's zinc scale */
-     --color-bg-primary: theme('colors.zinc.900');
-     --color-bg-secondary: theme('colors.zinc.800');
-     --color-border: theme('colors.zinc.700');
-     --color-text-primary: theme('colors.zinc.200');
-     --color-text-secondary: theme('colors.zinc.400');
-     --color-accent: theme('colors.indigo.500');
-   }
-   ```
-
-### Phase 2: Component Migration (2-3 hours)
-Priority order based on usage and visibility:
-
-#### High Priority (Most Used)
-1. **Layout components** (`app.css`, `sidebar.css`, `highlights.css`)
-   - Replace `#333`, `#2a2a2a`, `#1a1a1a` with zinc scale
-   - Replace `#646cff` with `indigo-500`
-   - ~83 replacements
-
-2. **Interactive components** (`icon-button.css`, `forms.css`, `cards.css`)
-   - Buttons, inputs, cards
-   - ~45 replacements
-
-3. **Content components** (`reader.css`, `modals.css`, `toast.css`)
-   - Reader interface, overlays
-   - ~35 replacements
-
-#### Medium Priority
-4. **Utility classes** (`utilities.css`, `animations.css`)
-   - Helper classes
-   - ~20 replacements
-
-5. **Profile and settings** (`profile.css`, `settings.css`, `me.css`)
-   - User-facing settings
-   - ~25 replacements
-
-#### Low Priority
-6. **Legacy styles** (`legacy.css`)
-   - Already minimal, keep for now
-   - Only ~5 colors used
-
-### Phase 3: Component Files (1-2 hours)
-1. **Replace arbitrary color values** in TSX files
-   ```tsx
-   // Before
-   className="bg-[#2a2a2a]"
-   
-   // After
-   className="bg-zinc-800"
-   ```
-
-2. **Update inline styles** that use hex colors
-   ```tsx
-   // Before
-   style={{ backgroundColor: '#646cff' }}
-   
-   // After
-   style={{ backgroundColor: 'rgb(var(--color-indigo-500))' }}
-   ```
-
-### Phase 4: Testing & Validation (30 min)
-1. Visual regression check on all pages
-2. Test dark mode (if/when implemented)
-3. Verify user-settable colors still work
-4. Check color contrast ratios for accessibility
-
-## Implementation Steps
-
-### Step 1: Extend Tailwind Config
-```bash
-# Edit tailwind.config.js
-```
-
-### Step 2: Update CSS Variables
-```bash
-# Edit src/styles/base/variables.css
-```
-
-### Step 3: Systematic File Updates
-```bash
-# Use find & replace with regex
-# Pattern: #([0-9a-fA-F]{3,6})
-# Test each file before committing
-```
-
-### Step 4: Update Components
-```bash
-# Search for className with arbitrary values
-# Pattern: bg-\[#|text-\[#|border-\[#
-```
-
-## Benefits
-
-1. **Maintainability**: Semantic color names (`zinc-800` vs `#2a2a2a`)
-2. **Consistency**: Same color palette across entire app
-3. **Dark Mode Ready**: Easy to add `dark:` variants later
-4. **Type Safety**: Tailwind's autocomplete in editors
-5. **Performance**: No need for arbitrary value parsing
-6. **Documentation**: Colors self-document their purpose
-7. **Flexibility**: Easy to change entire color scheme
-
-## Special Considerations
-
-### Keep CSS Variables For:
-- User-settable highlight colors
-- Dynamic theme colors from user preferences
-- Colors that need JavaScript manipulation
-
-### Example:
-```css
-/* Good: User-settable */
---highlight-color-mine: #ffff00;
-color: var(--highlight-color-mine);
-
-/* Good: Tailwind utility */
-.button {
-  @apply bg-zinc-800 hover:bg-zinc-700;
-}
-
-/* Bad: Hardcoded hex */
-background: #2a2a2a;
-```
-
-## Rollback Plan
-If issues arise:
-1. Git revert is available (commit per phase)
-2. CSS variables provide abstraction layer
-3. Old hex colors documented in this plan
-
-## Timeline
-- Phase 1: 30 minutes
-- Phase 2: 2-3 hours  
-- Phase 3: 1-2 hours
-- Phase 4: 30 minutes
-- **Total: 4-6 hours**
-
-## Success Metrics
-- ✅ Zero hardcoded hex colors in components
-- ✅ All colors use Tailwind palette or CSS variables
-- ✅ No visual regressions
-- ✅ Improved maintainability score
-- ✅ Consistent color naming throughout
-
-## Notes
-- Commit after each phase
-- Test visual appearance after each file
-- Keep CHANGELOG.md updated
-- Update TAILWIND_MIGRATION.md with progress
