2026-05-09: make agenda items in sidebar use more available space, so it says on one line (Tom Behets)
2026-05-09: tweak(sidebar): make agenda items use the full sidebar width The theme's .menu nav ul li padding (4px 30px 4px 40px) plus the glyphicon-file :before were sized for plain link rows. Agenda items under #last-events use a different shape — each <li class="row"> is a Bootstrap row with col-md-5 (date) + col-md-7 (title) — and the wide left/right padding plus the 8px-margin file icon were crowding the title column. Override #last-events ul li.row to padding: 2px 0; margin-right: 0 and suppress the :before so the date and title fill the column.

2026-05-09: feat(search): mirror live query into ?q= as the user types Every keystroke on /search/ now updates the URL bar via history.replaceState so the q= parameter always reflects the current input. replaceState (not pushState) keeps the browser back-button clean — no history entry per character — but a copy-paste of the URL mid-search captures what the user has typed so far. Empty input removes the q= parameter entirely instead of leaving an empty ?q=. Other URL parameters (if any) are preserved. Failure modes (no history API, URL constructor rejected) silently no-op; the search itself is independent of URL state. The companion seedFromQueryString() flow still runs unchanged, so a visitor arriving via /search/?q=foo (e.g. from the sidebar) auto-runs the query, then any further typing keeps the URL in sync.

2026-05-09: feat(search): add fuzzy/exact toggle to /search/ page A new checkbox 'Fuzzy search (typo-tolerant)' sits alongside 'Include past events'. Default ON (matches today's behaviour). When unchecked, search runs in exact-substring mode — useful when fuzzy results are too noisy for a known query. Implementation: build two Fuse instances at index-load time, identical except threshold (0.4 vs 0). Fuse compiles the threshold into the index at construction time so we can't switch per-search; keeping both around lets the toggle flip with no rebuild cost. Memory overhead is the second index's internal trie/scores; the original entries array is shared. The toggle re-runs the query (unlike include-past which only re-renders the cached rows) because changing fuzziness produces different result sets, not just a filter on the same set. The fuzzy toggle is optional — if the markup is missing (older templates), the script defaults to fuzzy=true and works as before. Sidebar dropdown (sidebar-search.js) is unchanged; it always uses fuzzy. Out of scope for this commit. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> (Tom Behets)
2026-05-09: fix(sidebar): center the dropdown under the search input The input is inline-block and was centered by the parent div's text-align: center, but the <ul> result list is block-level and text-align does not center blocks. Adding margin: 4px auto 0 centers the dropdown horizontally so its 90% width sits flush under the input. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> (Tom Behets)
2026-05-09: tweak(sidebar): swap mark colors to dark fill + solarized text Black background (#000) with #93a1a1 foreground reads as a subtle inverse highlight against the dark code-editor theme rather than the sage block of the previous #abab8b/#000 pairing.

2026-05-09: tweak(sidebar): update placeholder copy to 'Search this site...' Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com> (Tom Behets)
2026-05-09: feat(search): group events to top of results, sorted newest first Both runtimes (sidebar dropdown and /search/ page) now partition matches into events vs everything else, sort the events block by startdate descending (ISO YYYY-MM-DD strings sort lexicographically the same as chronologically), and concatenate events first then non-events. Inside each block, Fuse relevance order is preserved. Also: add .worktrees_backup to .gitignore. Stale build artifacts from the prior site-search mission's worktree had been getting picked up by git add -A on each follow-up commit.
