…1.1 baseline - Add a "supported AI CLI/TUI" guide and rewrite the Agent integration, AI start and history pages from the real settings, menus and CLI entry points. - Derive the site colours from the application's 16 built-in themes at build time (palettes.py) with a header theme picker; simplify the layout. - Re-audit the base pages against the v2.1.1 tag: platform integrations on macOS/Linux, Windows ARM64 installer, release asset names, update channels, settings navigation, and 2.0/2.1 features. Pin the manifest to v2.1.1.

Validation
Not changed: pages with no code differences between 1.9.1 and 2.1.1 were not re-read. AI assistance: Claude Sonnet 5.5 (reasoning effort not confirmed). |
Changing the palette repaints the page at once, but links and buttons faded over 180 ms, so rounded cards, nav pills and buttons lingered in the old colours against the new background for a moment. Disable transitions for the frames in which the palette changes.

Pushed Problem: after choosing a theme in the header picker, rounded cards, nav pills and buttons briefly stayed in the old colours against the new page background, which looked like rounded corners with gaps, then settled after a moment. Cause: the site-wide Fix: Validation: reproduced and verified in the built-in browser against the local build (before: grey intermediate cards after switching Nord Light to Catppuccin Mocha; after: the first frame is the final theme, in both directions). Added a regression check to AI assistance: Claude Sonnet 5.5 (reasoning effort not confirmed). |
The manifest no longer carries a per-page version and source commit, so the browser check must fall back to the site-level values instead of indexing them.

Title
docs: add complete static user documentation
Description
Summary
Add a complete, fully static user documentation website for Pebrel, designed around the current Pebrel 1.9.1 experience.
The documentation is written from a user-first perspective: where to go, what to click, what to enter, and what result to expect, rather than explaining internal implementation details.
What’s included
Documentation style
The documentation was rewritten to behave like a product guide rather than an implementation note.
Instructions now focus on concrete user actions and expected results, with technical details included only where they help explain behavior or resolve a problem.
The landing page was also simplified by removing unnecessary introductory labels and descriptive copy.
Screenshots
Existing Pebrel screenshots are reused where appropriate.
The site also includes an unchanged macOS screenshot captured by Pebrel’s official 1.9.1 release workflow, with its source recorded in the documentation metadata.
