- Re-enabled automatic service worker registration in svelte.config.js.
- Implemented a production-ready service-worker.js using SvelteKit metadata (-worker).
- Added intelligent caching for build artifacts, static files, and network fallbacks.
- This ensures the UI shell and assets load instantly from disk, completing the hydration performance workstream.
- Mitigation: Disabled `serviceWorker.register` in `svelte.config.js` to stop the loop of `TypeError` during script evaluation.
- Debug Tool: Preserved the `fix-sw` cache clearing utility by moving it to `src/routes/testing/fix-sw/+page.svelte` for future investigation.
- Service Worker: Simplified `src/service-worker.js` to a minimal "Hello World" state and removed the problematic `.ts` version.
- Cleanup: Minor formatting adjustment in `ae_events_functions.ts`.
- Docs: Updated `TODO.md` and `GEMINI.md` to reflect the mitigation and planned follow-up.
- API: Updated `search_ae_obj_v3` to correctly serialize complex URL parameters (JSON).
- Events: Restored "sacred" business logic for Event Badge and Session searches using `ft_qry` and `lk_qry`.
- PWA: Fixed manifest path in `app.html` to resolve 404 errors.
- Documentation: Updated `GEMINI.md` and `TODO.md` with recent search hardening accomplishments.
