Three review P2s fixed: both ui-smoke retries made idempotent (toPass re-runs after a late-landing click; the mode-menu one clicked a toggle and oscillated) plus a second guard so the <768px branch can recover at all, and #111 archived instead of left open-and-done. One Production UI red on ui-phone-scroll.spec.ts:574 was proven a flake before re-running: the delta from the passing head baecef05 was two ui-smoke guards and one docs row, neither reachable from that spec, and the PR touches no document-viewer phone-scroll surface. Re-run green | verify:cheap exit 0 (429 files / 4404 tests); design-token orphan guard proven red on a reintroduced class; PR required success with UI_RESULT success on re-run |

 3. A visible fixed phone dock may include `var(--safe-area-bottom)` so the pill clears the home indicator.
 4. A hidden phone dock must release the content-facing reserve to `0rem`; do not use `env(safe-area-inset-bottom)` or `var(--safe-area-bottom)` for hidden content padding.
 5. Edge-to-edge phone dock mode is `left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; width: 100%`; inset the pill with padding, not with a non-zero bottom offset. Keep the dock form transparent and use its absolute `.answer-footer-search-backdrop` child for localized translucent gradient/blur around the pill. The gradient and every blur mask must return to fully transparent at the physical bottom edge. It must move and fade with the dock, then become `visibility: hidden` after the hide transition so WebKit cannot retain a safe-area compositor strip; it must never become a viewport-fixed or opaque slab.
-6. Header and footer chrome that share the same scroll signal should hide/reveal symmetrically for the surfaces that actually hide: when the phone top bar is hidden, `chrome-safe-area-top` and the controls both release to `0rem` so underlying content paints to the physical viewport edge. The visible phone header still owns `var(--safe-area-top)`; tablet/desktop sticky chrome keeps its pinned inset. Top-bar hide/reveal is cross-breakpoint; the search field stays pinned on tablets, while desktop search belongs to page flow and scrolls away naturally; the bottom search dock is phone-only. Hidden bottom dock reserve stays `0rem` (invariant 4). Read "Scroll hide/reveal" below before changing either.

Header and footer chrome that share the same scroll signal should hide/reveal symmetrically for the surfaces that actually hide: when the phone top bar is hidden, `chrome-safe-area-top` and the controls both release to `0rem` so underlying content paints to the physical viewport edge. The visible phone header still owns `var(--safe-area-top)`; tablet/desktop sticky chrome keeps its pinned inset. While visible that spacer is the top of the header, so it paints `var(--surface)` — the bar's own opaque phone colour — never `var(--background)`: the page colour there reads as a status-bar band above the bar, the seam overlay-strategy answer mode never shows because its header pads the inset itself. Keep it opaque so the sm+ pinned inset still hides scrolled content. Top-bar hide/reveal is cross-breakpoint; the search field stays pinned on tablets, while desktop search belongs to page flow and scrolls away naturally; the bottom search dock is phone-only. Hidden bottom dock reserve stays `0rem` (invariant 4). Read "Scroll hide/reveal" below before changing either.
 7. Do not add page-local dock-sized `pb-[calc(...safe-area...)]` under a shell-owned dock. Put clearance in the shared reserve or the page-owned composer, never both.
 8. `GlobalSearchShell` uses an inner `mobile-composer-reserve-pad` so phone padding contributes to scroll height; do not move phone shell clearance back to scrollport padding without a browser proof.
 9. Page-owned fixed phone composers follow the same release contract: calculators use the shared footer backdrop; DocumentViewer keeps its floating pill but synchronizes transform, opacity, pointer release, and its own zero-reserve content padding. In-flow hero composers remain free of fixed-footer glass.
