# TODO

## Parallel Work Segments

These segments are intended to be independently executable wherever possible.
Each segment has its own local exit criteria.
The product is not complete until the global exit criteria at the end of this file are also met.

### Segment 1: Application State Ownership

- Keep the controller as the single source of truth for:
  session state,
  selected entry,
  selected template,
  current path,
  current section,
  search query,
  dirty state,
  status messaging,
  and error state.

Exit criteria:
- No core workflow depends on UI-local state as the authoritative source of vault data.
