 # Project Status: Marco
 
-**Last Updated:** Tue Feb 24 2026
+**Last Updated:** Wed Mar 18 2026
 
 ## Project Context
 
-We are building **Marco**, a decentralized maps application using **Ember.js** (Octane/Polaris edition with GJS/GLIMMER), **Vite**, and **OpenLayers**. The core feature is storing place bookmarks in **RemoteStorage.js**, using a custom module structure.
+We are building **Marco**, a decentralized maps application using **Ember.js** (Octane/Polaris), **Vite**, and **OpenLayers**. The core feature is storing place bookmarks in **RemoteStorage.js**.
 
 ## What We Have Done
 
 ### 1. Map Integration
 
-- Set up OpenLayers in `app/components/map.gjs` (class-based component).
-- Switched tiles to **OpenFreeMap Liberty** style (supports vector POIs).
-- Implemented a hybrid click handler:
-  - Detects clicks on visual vector tiles.
-  - Falls back to fetching authoritative data from an **Overpass API** service.
-  - **Logic Upgrade:** Map intelligently detects if _any_ sidebar/pane is open and handles outside clicks to close them instead of initiating new searches.
-- **Optimization:** Added **10px hit tolerance** for easier tapping on mobile devices.
-- **Visuals:** Increased bookmark marker size (Radius 9px) and added a subtle drop shadow.
-- **Feedback:** Implemented a "pulse" animation (via OpenLayers Overlay) at the click location to visualize the search radius (30m/50m).
-- **Mobile UX:**
-  - **Touch:** Disabled browser tap highlights (`-webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent`) to prevent blue flashing on Android.
-  - **Scroll:** Disabled "pull-to-refresh" (`overscroll-behavior: none`) on the body to prevent accidental reloads while keeping the sidebar scrollable (`contain`).
-  - **Auto-Pan:** On mobile screens, if a selected pin is obscured by the bottom sheet, the map automatically pans to center the pin in the visible top half of the screen.
-  - **Controls:** Fixed positioning of "Locate" and "Rotate" buttons on mobile by correcting CSS `inset` syntax.
-  - **iOS Polish:**
-    - Prevented input auto-zoom by ensuring `.form-control` font size is `1rem` (16px).
-    - Added `-webkit-text-size-adjust: 100%` to prevent text inflation on rotation.
-    - Set base `body` font size to `16px`.
-- **Geolocation ("Locate Me"):**
-  - Implemented a "Locate Me" button with robust tracking logic.
-  - **Dynamic Zoom:** Automatically zooms to a level where the accuracy circle covers ~10% of the map (fallback logic handles missing accuracy data).
-  - **Smart Pulse:** Displays a pulsing blue circle during the search phase.
-  - **Auto-Stop:** Pulse and tracking automatically stop when high accuracy (≤20m) is achieved or after a 10s timeout.
-- **Persistence:** Saves and restores map center and zoom level using `localStorage` (key: `marco:map-view`).
-- **Controls:** Enabled standard OpenLayers Rotate control (re-north) and custom Locate control.
-- **Pin Animation:** Selected pins are highlighted with a custom **Red Pin** overlay that drops in with an animation. The center dot is styled as a solid dark red circle (`#b31412`).
-- **Smart Zoom:** Implemented `zoomToBbox` to automatically fit complex geometries (ways/relations) within the visible viewport.
-  - **Dynamic Padding:** Calculates padding based on active UI elements (Sidebar on Desktop, Bottom Sheet on Mobile) to ensure the geometry is perfectly centered in the _visible_ map area.
-  - **Data Processing:** `OsmService` now calculates bounding boxes for ways and relations by aggregating member node coordinates.
-- **Geometry Rendering:**
-  - **Outlines:** Implemented distinct blue outlines for selected OSM `ways` (Polygons) and `relations` (MultiLineStrings/Polygons) to clearly visualize boundaries.
-  - **Data Fetching:** Enhanced routing to fetch full geometry data on-demand if the initial search result (e.g., from Photon) lacks it, ensuring outlines are always available.
+- **Vector Tiles:** Using **OpenFreeMap Liberty** style with a hybrid click handler (Visual Tiles + Overpass API fallback).
+- **Smart Interaction:**
+  - **Hit Tolerance:** 10px buffer for easier mobile tapping.
+  - **Auto-Pan:** Selected pins automatically center in the visible area (respecting bottom sheets/sidebars).
+  - **Smart Zoom:** `zoomToBbox` fits complex geometries (ways/relations) with dynamic padding, only zooming out to fit.
+- **Visuals:** Custom "Red Pin" overlay with drop animation. Selected OSM ways/relations show distinct blue outlines.
+- **Geolocation:** Robust "Locate Me" with dynamic zoom and accuracy visualization.
 
 ### 2. RemoteStorage Module (`@remotestorage/module-places`)
 
-- Created a custom TypeScript module in `vendor/remotestorage-module-places/`.
-- **Schema:** `place` object containing `id` (ULID), `title`, `lat`, `lon`, `geohash`, `osmId`, `url`, etc.
-- **Storage Path:** Nested `<2-char>/<2-char>/<id>` (based on geohash) for scalability.
-- **API:**
-  - `getPlaces(prefixes?)`: efficient partial loading of specific sectors (or full recursive scan if no prefixes provided).
-  - Uses `getListing` for directory traversal and `getAll` for object retrieval.
-  - configured with `maxAge: false` to ensure data freshness.
-- **Dependencies:** Uses `ulid` and `latlon-geohash` internally.
+- **Custom Module:** Handles `place` objects with Geohash-based partitioning (`<2-char>/<2-char>/<id>`).
+- **Optimization:** Supports efficient spatial querying via prefix loading.
+- **Lists Support:** Manages collection-based organization (e.g., "To Visit", "Favorites").
 
-### 3. App Infrastructure & Build
+### 3. App Infrastructure
 
 - **Services:**
-  - `storage.js`: Initializes RemoteStorage, claims access, enables caching, and sets up the widget. Consumes the new `getPlaces` API.
-    - **Optimization:** Implemented **Debounced Reload** (200ms) for bookmark updates to handle rapid change events efficiently.
-    - **Optimization:** Correctly handles deletion/updates by clearing stale data for reloaded geohash sectors.
-  - `osm.js`: Fetches nearby POIs from Overpass API.
-    - **Configurable:** Now supports dynamic API endpoints via `SettingsService`.
-    - **Reliability:** Implemented `fetchWithRetry` to handle HTTP 504/502/503 timeouts and 429 rate limits, in addition to network errors.
-    - **Caching:** Implemented in-memory cache for repeated `getNearbyPois` requests (same lat/lon/radius) to enable instant "Back" navigation.
-  - `settings.js`: Manages user preferences (currently Overpass API provider) persisted to `localStorage`.
+  - `storage.js`: Manages RemoteStorage, caching, and the new **Lists** feature (`to-go`, `to-do`).
+  - `osm.js`: Fetches/caches POIs from Overpass API (configurable endpoints).
+  - `settings.js`: Persists user preferences (e.g., API provider).
 - **UI Components:**
-  - `places-sidebar.gjs`: Displays a list of nearby POIs.
-    - **Layout:** Responsive design that transforms into a **Bottom Sheet** (50% height) on mobile screens (`<=768px`) with rounded corners and upward shadow.
-  - `place-details.gjs`: Dedicated component for displaying rich place information.
-    - **Features:** Icons (via `feather-icons`), Address, Phone, Website, Opening Hours, Cuisine, Wikipedia.
-    - **Layout:** Polished UI with distinct sections for Actions and Meta info.
-  - `app-header.gjs`: Transparent header with "Menu" button (Settings) and User Avatar (Login).
-  - `settings-pane.gjs`: Sidebar component for app info ("About" section) and settings.
-    - **Features:** Dropdown to select Overpass API provider (bke.ro, overpass-api.de, private.coffee).
-    - **Mobile:** Renders as a 2/3 height bottom sheet on mobile.
-    - **Z-Index:** Configured to overlay the Places sidebar correctly (`z-index: 3200`).
-- **Geo Utils:**
-  - `app/utils/geo.js`: Haversine distance calculations.
-  - `app/utils/geohash-coverage.js`: Logic to calculate required 4-char geohash prefixes for a given bounding box.
-- **Format Utils:**
-  - `app/utils/format-text.js` & `humanize-osm-tag` helper: Standardized logic (Title Case, space replacement) for displaying OSM tags like `guest_house` -> "Guest House".
-  - **Tag refinement:** Improved logic for handling generic tags (e.g., `building=yes`). The UI now intelligently displays the key ("Building") instead of the value ("Yes") for better readability.
-  - **Localization:** Added basic `navigator.languages` support to `getLocalizedName` for preferring local names when available.
-- **Build & DevOps:**
-  - **Icon Generation:** Added `build:icons` script using `magick` and `rsvg-convert` to automate PNG generation from SVG.
-  - **Dependencies:** Documented system requirements (ImageMagick, librsvg) in `README.md`.
-  - **Ember CLI:** Added as dev dependency to support generator commands.
-  - **License:** Added AGPLv3 license.
+  - **Responsive Layout:** Sidebar transforms into a Bottom Sheet on mobile.
+  - **Place Details:** Rich info (Address, Socials, Opening Hours) with distinct "Actions" and "Meta" sections.
+  - **App Menu:** Comprehensive settings and about section, implemented as a secondary sidebar.
+- **CI/CD:** Gitea Actions for automated testing and release drafting.
 
-### 4. Routing & Architecture (Refactored)
+### 4. Routing & Architecture
 
-- **URL-Driven Architecture:** Moved from service-based state to proper route-based state management.
-  - `/search?lat=...&lon=...&q=...`: Displays search results list.
-  - `/place/:place_id`: Displays details for a specific place (OSM POI or Bookmark).
-- **Heuristic Navigation:** The `search` route implements "visual click matching" logic. If a search yields a direct match (exact name or very close proximity), it automatically redirects to the `/place/` route, skipping the list view.
-- **Back Button Support:** Browser history works correctly. Navigating "Back" from a place returns to the cached search results instantly without network requests.
-- **Explicit URLs:** Routes support specific OSM entities via `/place/osm:node:<id>` and `/place/osm:way:<id>`, distinguishing them from local bookmarks (ULIDs).
-- **Smart Linking:** The `showPlaces` action intercepts search results and automatically resolves them to existing **Bookmarks** if a match is found (via `storage.findPlaceById`). This ensures the app navigates to the persistent Bookmark URL (ULID) and correctly reflects the "Saved" status in the UI instead of treating it as a new generic OSM place.
-- **Data Normalization:** Refactored `OsmService` to return normalized objects (`osmTags`, `osmType`) for all queries. This ensures consistent data structures between fresh Overpass results and saved bookmarks throughout the app.
+- **URL-Driven:** `/search` (list) and `/place/:id` (details) routes.
+- **Smart Navigation:**
+  - Direct hits redirect to details.
+  - Search results automatically resolve to existing **Bookmarks**.
+  - "Back" navigation returns to cached search results instantly.
 
-### 5. Creation & Editing Workflow
+### 5. Features
 
-- **Create Place:**
-  - Implemented `/place/new` route for creating new private places.
-  - **UX:** Map displays a central crosshair for precise location selection.
-  - **Mobile Optimization:**
-    - Disabled map inertia (`kinetic: false`) to ensure the map stops exactly where the finger releases.
-    - `PlaceEditForm` conditionally disables autofocus on mobile screens (`<= 768px`) to prevent the onscreen keyboard from obscuring the map view immediately.
-    - Responsive crosshair sizing (48px desktop / 24px mobile).
-  - **Persistence:** Form data (Title, Description) and Map coordinates are securely saved to RemoteStorage via `storage.storePlace`.
-
-### 6. Search Functionality
-
-- **Provider:** Integrated **Photon API** (by Komoot) via `app/services/photon.js` for high-quality, typo-tolerant OpenStreetMap search.
-- **UI:** `SearchBoxComponent` implements a responsive search bar with instant autocomplete.
-  - **Debounced Input:** 300ms delay to prevent excessive API calls.
-  - **Location Bias:** Automatically biases search results towards the current map center to show relevant local places first.
-  - **Direct Navigation:** Selecting a result with a valid OSM ID navigates directly to the specific place details (`/place/osm:type:id`).
-- **Resilience:** Implemented retry logic (exponential backoff/fixed delay) for network errors and rate limits (429).
-- **Data Normalization:** Search results are normalized to match the internal POI schema, ensuring consistent rendering across Search and Map views.
+- **Search:** Typo-tolerant **Photon API** integration with location bias and debounce.
+- **Creation & Editing:**
+  - "Crosshair" mode for precise location picking.
+  - Edit Title/Description for saved places.
+- **Lists:** Users can add places to default lists ("To Go", "To Do") directly from the details view.
+- **Socials:** Place details now include Email, Facebook, and Instagram links.
+- **Data Sync:** Auto-refreshes OSM data (coords/tags) for saved places on view, preserving custom titles.
 
 ## Current State
 
-- **Repo:** The app runs via `pnpm start`.
+- **Repo:** Runs via `pnpm start`.
 - **Workflow:**
-  1.  User pans map -> `moveend` triggers `storage.loadPlacesInBounds`.
-  2.  User clicks map -> Route transition to `/search` -> "Pulse" animation -> hybrid hit detection (Visual Tile vs Overpass).
-  3.  **Navigation:**
-      - If direct match: Redirect to `/place/:id`.
-      - If multiple results: Show `/search` list view.
-  4.  Sidebar displays details via `<PlaceDetails>` component (Bottom sheet on mobile).
-  5.  **Creation:** User clicks "Create Place" -> Enters creation mode (crosshair) -> Positions map -> Enters details -> Save.
-  6.  **Persistence:** RemoteStorage change event -> Debounced reload updates the map reactive-ly.
-  7.  **Editing:** User can edit the Title and Description of saved bookmarks via an "Edit" button in the details view.
-  8.  **Settings:** User can change the Overpass API provider via the new Settings menu.
+  1.  **Explore:** Pan/Zoom loads bookmarks from RemoteStorage.
+  2.  **Search:** Query via Photon -> List or Direct Result.
+  3.  **View:** Details pane (Sidebar/Bottom Sheet) shows rich info + social links.
+  4.  **Action:**
+      - **Save:** Persist to RemoteStorage.
+      - **Organize:** Add to "To Go" / "To Do" lists.
+      - **Edit:** Custom Title/Description.
+  5.  **Sync:** Background check updates OSM data if changed.
