+# Frontend Style Guide
+
+All visual values are centralized in `app/src/theme/index.ts`. Never use hardcoded hex colors or font strings — always import tokens.
+
+## Imports
+```ts
+import { typography, colors, semanticColors, fontSize, spacing } from '../theme';
+// Shared style constants:
+import { headingStyle, subheadingStyle, textStyle, codeBlockStyle, tableStyle, labelStyle, monoText } from '../theme';
+```
+
+## Colors
+- **Brand**: `colors.primary` (#3776AB), `colors.accent` (#FFD43B), `colors.primaryDark` (#306998)
+- **Gray scale**: `colors.gray[50]` to `colors.gray[900]`
+- **Semantic text**: `semanticColors.labelText` (7.0:1), `semanticColors.subtleText` (5.8:1), `semanticColors.mutedText` (4.6:1)
+- **Status**: `colors.success`, `colors.error`, `colors.warning`, `colors.info`
+- **Backgrounds**: `colors.background`, `colors.accentBg`
+- **Code blocks**: `colors.codeBlock.bg`, `colors.codeBlock.text`
+
+## WCAG Rule
+`colors.gray[400]` (#9ca3af) and lighter **must never be used for text or icons**. Minimum text color: `semanticColors.mutedText` (#6b7280, 4.6:1 contrast).
+
+## Font
+Always use `typography.fontFamily` — never inline `'"MonoLisa", monospace'` or raw `'monospace'`.
+**Exception**: ErrorBoundary uses raw `'monospace'` intentionally (crash-safe fallback).
+
+## Font Sizes
+`fontSize.micro` (0.5rem) and `fontSize.xxs` (0.625rem) are restricted to data-dense pages (StatsPage, DebugPage).
+Public pages use `fontSize.xs` (0.75rem) as minimum.
+Full scale: micro, xxs, xs, sm, md, base, lg, xl.
+
+## Shared Constants
+- `headingStyle` — page h2 (1.25rem, 600, gray.800)
+- `subheadingStyle` — page h3 (1rem, 600, gray.700)
+- `textStyle` — body text (0.9375rem, labelText, lineHeight 1.8)
+- `codeBlockStyle` — dark code blocks
+- `tableStyle` — consistent table cells/headers
+- `labelStyle` — small labels (0.875rem, labelText)
+
+## Highlight Colors
+Use theme tokens for highlight treatments: `colors.highlight.bg`/`colors.highlight.text` for highlighted tag chips and `colors.tooltipLight` for tooltip text on dark backgrounds. Do not reintroduce hardcoded highlight hex values.
+
+## Full reference
+See `docs/reference/style-guide.md` for complete documentation including spacing, breakpoints, component specs, animations, and accessibility rules.

+### JetBrains Tools (prefer over brute-force scanning)
+
+Use Serena's JetBrains-backed tools for code navigation — they provide semantic understanding
+that grep/glob cannot:
+
+- `jet_brains_get_symbols_overview` — get top-level symbols in a file (classes, functions, variables). Use with `depth: 1` to also see methods of classes. Start here to understand a file before diving deeper.
+- `jet_brains_find_symbol` — search for a symbol by name across the codebase. Supports name path patterns like `MyClass/my_method`. Use `include_body: true` to read source code, `include_info: true` for docstrings/signatures.
+- `jet_brains_find_referencing_symbols` — find all usages of a symbol (who calls this function? who imports this class?). Essential for understanding impact of changes.
+- `jet_brains_find_declaration` — jump to where a symbol is defined.
+- `jet_brains_find_implementations` — find implementations of an interface/abstract class.
+- `jet_brains_type_hierarchy` — understand class inheritance chains.
 
-Prefer Serena's symbolic tools (`jet_brains_find_symbol`, `jet_brains_get_symbols_overview`,
-`jet_brains_find_referencing_symbols`) over brute-force file scanning.
+### Editing via Serena
 
-Use Serena's thinking tools to maintain focus:
+For structural edits, prefer Serena's symbol-aware tools over raw text replacement:
 
-- `think_about_collected_information` - after research/search sequences
-- `think_about_task_adherence` - before making code changes
-- `think_about_whether_you_are_done` - when task seems complete
+- `replace_symbol_body` — replace an entire function/class body
+- `insert_after_symbol` / `insert_before_symbol` — add code relative to a symbol
+- `search_for_pattern` — regex search across the codebase (fast, flexible)
