 ## 🛠️ What I Just Did
-- **Hydration Performance:** Eliminated the "white page" delay on refresh by refactoring root and module layouts to be non-blocking.
-- **SWR Integration:** Implemented Stale-While-Revalidate pattern in Event, Session, and Journal modules.
-- **Service Worker:** Restored SW registration and added robust asset caching for near-instant UI loads.
-- **Native Bridge:** Completed Phase 5 automation handlers (PowerPoint/Keynote) and built a visual Telemetry Dashboard.
-- **Log Cleanup:** Silenced aborted fetch request errors to prevent console spam during navigation.
+- **Search Standardization:** Completed the migration of IDAA Recovery Meetings, Journals, Badges, and Session search to the high-performance reactive pattern.
+- **Search Guard Deployed:** Implemented loop-proof guards across all major search modules.
+- **Field Normalization:** Renamed 'default_qry_string' to 'default_qry_str' across the project to match the V3 API whitelisting.
+- **Session UI Refinement:** Fixed layout inconsistencies, icon scaling, and Lucide export errors in the Session module.
+- **Store Hardening:** Implemented explicit initialization for persisted store fields to prevent reactivity race conditions.
 
 ## 🚧 Current Blockers
-- **IDAA Issues:** Initial reports suggest regressions or bugs in IDAA-specific pages. Investigation pending.
+- **Exhibit Search:** Still missing functionality in the Leads module.
+- **IDAA Jitsi:** Needs an audit for connection stability and reliable logging.
 
 ## ➡️ Exact Next Steps
-- Audit `src/routes/idaa/` for reported regressions.
-- Verify Jitsi meeting integration and report stability.
-- Restore missing Exhibit module search functions.
-- Continue resolving the remaining ~250 svelte-check errors.
+- Restore missing Exhibit search logic in the Leads module.
+- Audit Jitsi meeting integration for stability and telemetry accuracy.
+- Investigate reported bugs in IDAA-specific pages.
+- Continue resolving svelte-check type errors in legacy components.
