On the suite dashboard, scan COM ports, surface detected service cables in an
inline panel, and gate module entry until one is selected (modal warning + Rescan
/ Quit when none). Records the live finding that both cables are FTDI 0403:6001
and indistinguishable from each other by USB descriptor.

Drop the full VB6 source for two more service tools into their module
legacy/ baselines and register them as ComingSoonModule cards in the shell:
- cim_suite/modules/da07/legacy/ (DA-07 Service Tool Software)
- cim_suite/modules/iomodbus/legacy/ (IOModbus RS-485 service utility)
Both appear as "coming soon" launcher cards; rebuilding each into a live
module is its own spec → plan → implement cycle (see docs/BACKLOG.md).

Update all five named files to reflect the completed suite-monorepo reshape:
run/entry commands point at cim_suite.shell.app; architecture tables and paths
updated to cim_suite/core + cim_suite/modules/da12 + cim_suite/shell; SUITE-
ARCHITECTURE.md status changed from "not yet built" to done with actual layout
and updated Module contract; REBUILD-STATUS.md records 88 tests and Phase 5;
BACKLOG.md marks reshape done and adds BL-S1/S2/S3 follow-ups including the
config/data-path migration caveat; transport __init__ docstring points to
cim_suite.core.transport.serial_transport for the real transport.

Introduces the `Module` Protocol in `cim_suite/core/module.py` (with
`ComingSoonModule` placeholder) and `Da12Module` in
`cim_suite/modules/da12/module.py` that wraps controller + MainWindow
behind the contract. Adds 2 tests (79 total passing).

Introduces cim_suite/core/config.py with app-scoped path helpers and JSON
load/save utilities that are independent of QApplication name. The DA-12
module config.py becomes a thin wrapper that binds APP_NAME and filenames
while keeping the same public API (load_config, save_config, data_dir,
cal_csv_path) so no call sites change.

Task-by-task, test-guarded plan implementing the approved reshape spec:
branch + scaffold, move VB6 baseline per-module, relocate the DA-12 package,
extract core (codecs/transport/theme+TableTab/config), Module contract +
Da12Module, the card-launcher shell, suite repackaging, docs, and the
drop-in recipe for apps #2/#3.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Concrete, approved design for turning the standalone DA-12 repo into the
CIMTechniques Service Suite monorepo: cim_suite/ import root, conservative
core extraction, a card-launcher shell, the Module contract, and a
test-guarded migration order. Legacy VB6 source moves per-module into
modules/<app>/legacy/. Supersedes the sketch in SUITE-ARCHITECTURE.md.

Establish the suite-wide visual design system as a self-contained theme
layer and apply it across the DA-12 module.
- theme package (da12_service/ui/theme): tokens -> fonts -> stylesheet ->
apply_theme; no app dependencies, shaped to move into core/ui/theme.
- Palette/fonts derived from the SmartScan brand: azure #0096FF accent on
cool-slate surfaces, Lato bundled (OFL) and loaded at runtime.
- Applied app-wide: branded toolbar header + primary Connect action,
underline tab bar, banded gridless tables, themed inputs/buttons/dialogs,
status-bar connection pill, primary-button variants.
- Alarm row colors now come from SEVERITY tokens (alarms red / warnings
amber) instead of hardcoded pastels.
- Packaging ships fonts in both the PyInstaller spec and the wheel.
Documented as the binding suite standard in docs/DESIGN-SYSTEM.md (rules +
per-module adoption checklist), cross-linked from SUITE-ARCHITECTURE.md and
CLAUDE.md. Backlog: BL-3 DONE, BL-4 (dark variant) and BL-5 logged.
ruff clean; 73 tests pass; app boots with --simulate.

Reciprocal pointers so the live to-do list (backlog) and the point-in-time status
stay in sync regardless of which is opened first; status 'Known gaps' now flagged as
candidates to promote into the backlog.

- BL-1: graceful shutdown on app close (close port / join reader via closeEvent).
- BL-2: connection status goes stale on unexpected disconnect (emit
connectionChanged(False) from the reader error path).

The bundled exe died at startup with 'attempted relative import with no known
parent package' because the spec ran da12_service/app.py as __main__ (no package
context). Dev was unaffected (python -m sets the context).
- packaging/da12_launcher.py: thin entry that imports the package absolutely so
app.py loads as a submodule and its relative imports resolve.
- spec: target the launcher; robust pathex via SPECPATH.
- app.py: DA12_SELFTEST hook (boot then auto-quit) for reliable build verification.
- tests/test_packaging_entry.py: runs the entry as PyInstaller does; asserts clean
boot — regression guard (73 tests total).
- RUNNING.md: correct verification method (a lingering window != a clean boot).
Rebuilt exe verified: boots and self-exits with code 0.

- SUITE-ARCHITECTURE.md: agreed direction (unified modular app on a shared core),
rationale, target monorepo structure, thin module contract, rule-of-three caution,
and sequencing (awaiting source for apps #2/#3). Not yet built.
- REBUILD-STATUS.md: 'Next direction' pointer to the suite plan.
- VB6-MIGRATION-PLAYBOOK.md: new section on consolidating multiple apps into one
suite (when to unify vs separate shells; don't over-build core from one app).
No code changes — documentation only, per request, ahead of receiving the other apps.

Portable guide distilled from the DA-12 rebuild: why VB6 apps break, stack choice
(Python+PySide6 vs .NET), the phased process, how to read VB6 source, a VB6-quirk
-> Python reference (signed-16/32 hex, Int() floor, fixed-point/sentinels, OCX
replacements, serial specifics), the layered/simulator architecture, dropped-feature
discipline, testing, packaging/AV/signing, and a per-app reuse checklist.

- decode_float(): scale/offset use VB AddFloat semantics with NO 8000 sentinel
(8000 is a real negative value there, not no-value). decoder 'A' branch updated.
- encode_scaled(): use math.floor to match VB Int() (floors toward -inf), correct
for negative calibration offsets.
- Simulator F-frame: comment that its layout is not verified ground truth.
- REBUILD-STATUS: record the review + the deferred F-counter display.
- +3 regression tests (72 total).

Phase 2:
- transport: BaseTransport interface, pyserial SerialTransport (19200-8-N-1 reader
thread), and a deterministic in-memory SimulatedStation speaking the wire protocol.
- domain: SensorTable/LimitsTable/StatsTable/StationSettings with partial updates;
two-point + offset-only calibration math with DACal.csv-compatible history;
per-sensor MeasurementLogger matching the legacy format.
- StationController (QObject) routes transport->framer->decoder->models->signals,
using AutoConnection so the simulator runs synchronously and the serial reader
thread is marshaled to the GUI thread. Full outbound command surface.
- 62 passing tests (protocol + transport + domain).

Imports the original Visual Basic 6 source (Main.frm, Support.bas, Calib.frm,
NewSensors.frm, ComSetup.frm, Error.frm, project files) and reference data
(DACal.csv, DAService.tab, Exceptions.txt) as the starting point, plus the
approved modernization design spec under docs/superpowers/specs/.
