Merge branch 'master' into performance-optimizations-testing

feat(harbor-pilot): add historical comment management and no time estimates rules
Add two new Harbor Pilot directives to improve code quality and planning: 1. Historical Comment Management: Guidelines for transforming or removing obsolete comments into actionable architectural guidance 2. No Time Estimates: Rule prohibiting time estimates in favor of phase-based planning with complexity levels and milestones Both rules are integrated into main Harbor Pilot directive for automatic application across all operations.

+# Building Guidelines
+
+## Configurations
+
+- The project supports builds using **Vite** for web and **Capacitor** for hybrid
+  apps.
+- Capacitor is used for **iOS**, **Android**, and **Electron** targets.
+- All builds support three modes: **development**, **testing**, and **production**.
+
+## Build Scripts
+
+- `build-web.sh`
+  - Builds a **web-only application**.
+  - Defaults to **development mode** unless overridden.
+
+- `build-ios.sh`
+  - Builds an **iOS hybrid native application** using Capacitor.
+
+- `build-android.sh`
+  - Builds an **Android hybrid native application** using Capacitor.
+
+- `build-electron.sh`
+  - Builds an **Electron hybrid desktop application** using Capacitor.
+
+## npm Scripts
+
+- npm scripts delegate to the `build-*` shell scripts.
+- Parameter flags determine the **build mode** (`development`, `testing`, `production`).

-# Component Creation Ideals — TimeSafari Architecture (Directive MDC, v2)
-
-> **Agent role**: Apply these rules when creating, refactoring, or reviewing Vue components (Vue 3 with **vue-facing-decorator**). Prioritize **self-contained** components that hydrate from and persist to **PlatformServiceMixin** settings. Minimize parent–child coupling and prop drilling. Prefer **concision** where a separate component would add more API surface than value.
-
-## 📚 Cross-References
-
- **Migration Example**: See `src/components/NotificationSection.vue` for successful refactor implementation
- **Parent Component**: See `src/views/AccountViewView.vue` for before/after comparison
- **Settings Infrastructure**: See `src/utils/PlatformServiceMixin.ts` for available methods
- **Related Rules**: See `.cursor/rules/` for other architectural guidelines
-
-## Golden Rules (Enforce)
-
-### Priority Levels
- 🔴 **CRITICAL**: Must be followed - breaking these creates architectural problems
- 🟡 **HIGH**: Strongly recommended - important for maintainability
- 🟢 **MEDIUM**: Good practice - improves code quality
-
-1. **Self-Contained Components** 🔴 **CRITICAL**
-   - Do **not** require parent props for internal state or behavior.
-   - Hydrate on `mounted()` via `this.$accountSettings()`; persist with `this.$saveSettings()`.
-   - Encapsulate business logic inside the component; avoid delegating core logic to the parent.
-   - Prefer **computed** getters for derived values; avoid stored duplicates of derived state.
-
-2. **Settings-First Architecture** 🔴 **CRITICAL**
-   - Use `PlatformServiceMixin` for reading/writing settings. Do **not** introduce new state managers (Pinia, custom stores) unless the state is *truly global*.
-   - Prefer **fetch-on-mount** over passing values via props.
-
-3. **Single Responsibility** 🟡 **HIGH**
-   - Each component owns **one clear purpose** (UI + related logic + settings persistence). Avoid splitting UI/logic across multiple components unless reusability clearly benefits.
-
-4. **Internal State Lifecycle** 🟡 **HIGH**
-   - Pattern: **defaults → hydrate on mount → computed for derived → persist on change**.
-   - Handle hydration errors gracefully (keep safe defaults; surface actionable UI states as needed).
-
-5. **Minimal Props** 🔴 **CRITICAL**
-   - Props are for **pure configuration** (labels, limits, feature flags). Do not pass data that can be loaded internally.
-   - **Never** pass props that mirror settings values (e.g., `isRegistered`, `notifying*`). Load those from settings.
-
-6. **Communication & Events** 🟡 **HIGH**
-   - Children may emit events for *user interactions* (e.g., `submitted`, `closed`) but **not** to offload core logic to the parent.
-   - Do not emit events solely to persist settings; the child handles persistence.
-
-7. **Testing** 🟢 **MEDIUM**
-   - Unit tests mount components in isolation; mock `this.$accountSettings`/`this.$saveSettings`.
-   - Verify hydration on mount, persistence on mutation, and graceful failure on settings errors.
-

-## Concision-First Decision Framework
-
-> **Goal:** Avoid unnecessary components when a concise script, composable, or helper suffices.
-
-**Prefer NOT making a component when:**
- **One-off UI**: used in exactly one view, unlikely to repeat.
- **Small scope**: ~≤100–150 LOC, ≤3 reactive fields, ≤2 handlers.
- **Purely presentational** with trivial logic.
- **Local invariants**: behavior depends entirely on the view’s context.
- **Abstraction cost > benefit**: would create an anemic component with props mirroring parent state.
- **Better fit as code reuse**: logic works as a **composable/service/helper** without introducing new UI.
-
-**Concise alternatives:**
- **Composable**: `useFeature()` encapsulates settings I/O and state.
- **Service/Module**: plain TS helpers for formatting/validation.
- **Directive**: tiny DOM behaviors that don’t need a lifecycle boundary.
-
-**When to make a component (even without reuse yet):**
- **Isolation boundary**: async side effects, permission prompts, or recoverable error states.
- **Stateful widget**: internal settings persistence, media controls, complex a11y.
- **Slots/composition**: needs flexible children or layout.
- **Different change rate**: sub-tree churns independently of the parent.
- **Testability/ownership**: clear, ownable surface that’s easier to unit-test in isolation.
-
-**Rule of Three (guardrail):**
- 1st time: inline or composable.
- 2nd time: consider shared abstraction.
- 3rd time: extract a component.
-
-**PR language (use when choosing concision):**
- “One-off, ~80 LOC, no expected reuse. A component would add an API surface with no consumer. Keeping it local reduces cognitive load. If we see a second usage, promote to a composable; third usage, a component.”
- “Logic lives in `useX()` to keep the view concise without prop plumbing; settings stay via `PlatformServiceMixin`.”
-
---
-
-## Anti-Patterns (Reject)
-
- Props that duplicate internal/derivable state: `:is-registered`, `:notifying-*`, etc.
- Child components that are **UI-only** while parents hold the business logic for that feature.
- Introducing Pinia/custom stores for per-component state.
- Emitting `update:*` events to push settings responsibilities to parents.
- Scattering a feature across multiple micro-components without a clear reuse reason.
- Using props for computed/derived values (e.g., `showAdvancedFeatures` as a prop).
-
---
-
-## Quick Examples
-
-### ✅ DO (Self-Contained, Settings-First)
-
-```vue
-<!-- Parent renders with no props -->
-<NotificationSection />
-```
-
-```ts
-// NotificationSection.vue (vue-facing-decorator + PlatformServiceMixin)
-import { Component, Vue } from "vue-facing-decorator";
-import { PlatformServiceMixin } from "@/utils/PlatformServiceMixin";
-
-@Component({
-  mixins: [PlatformServiceMixin],
-})
-export default class NotificationSection extends Vue {
-  private notifyingNewActivity: boolean = false;
-
-  async mounted(): Promise<void> {
-    await this.hydrateFromSettings();
-  }
-
-  private async hydrateFromSettings(): Promise<void> {
-    try {
-      const s = await this.$accountSettings();
-      this.notifyingNewActivity = !!s.notifyingNewActivityTime;
-    } catch (err) {
-      // Keep defaults; optionally surface a non-blocking UI notice
-    }
-  }
-
-  private async updateNotifying(state: boolean): Promise<void> {
-    await this.$saveSettings({ notifyingNewActivityTime: state ? Date.now() : null });
-    this.notifyingNewActivity = state;
-  }
-}
-```
-
-### ❌ DON'T (Prop-Driven Coupling)
-
-```vue
-<!-- Parent passes internal state down -->
-<NotificationSection 
-  :is-registered="isRegistered"
-  :notifying-new-activity="notifyingNewActivity"
-/>
-```
-
-```ts
-// Child receives props (anti-pattern)
-export default class NotificationSection extends Vue {
-  isRegistered: boolean = false;
-  notifyingNewActivity: boolean = false;
-}
-```
-
---
-
-## Component Structure Template (Drop-In)
-
-```ts
-/**
- * ComponentName.vue — Purpose
- * Owns: UI + logic + settings persistence (PlatformServiceMixin).
- */
-import { Component, Vue } from "vue-facing-decorator";
-import { PlatformServiceMixin } from "@/utils/PlatformServiceMixin";
-import type { Router } from "vue-router";
-
-@Component({
-  components: {
-    // child components here
-  },
-  mixins: [PlatformServiceMixin], // Settings access
-})
-export default class ComponentName extends Vue {
-  // Internal state
-  private myState: boolean = false;
-  private myData: string = "";
-
-  // Derived
-  private get isEnabled(): boolean {
-    return this.myState && this.hasPermissions;
-  }
-
-  async mounted(): Promise<void> {
-    await this.hydrateFromSettings();
-  }
-
-  private async hydrateFromSettings(): Promise<void> {
-    try {
-      const s = await this.$accountSettings();
-      this.myState = !!s.mySetting;
-      this.myData = s.myData ?? "";
-    } catch (err) {
-      // keep defaults
-    }
-  }
-
-  private async updateState(v: boolean): Promise<void> {
-    await this.$saveSettings({ mySetting: v });
-    this.myState = v;
-  }
-
-  async handleUserAction(): Promise<void> {
-    await this.updateState(true);
-  }
-}
-```

-
-## Migration Playbook (Props → Self-Contained)
-
-> **Agent, when you see a component receiving `@Prop()` values that mirror settings or internal state, apply this playbook.**
-
-1. **Detect Anti-Props**
-   - Flag props matching: `is*`, `has*`, `notifying*`, or mirroring settings keys.
-   - Search for parent usage of these props and events.
-
-2. **Inline State**
-   - Remove anti-props and `@Prop()` declarations.
-   - Add private fields for state inside the child.
-   - Add `mounted()` hydration and persistence helpers via `PlatformServiceMixin`.
-
-3. **Parent Simplification**
-   - Replace `<Child :foo="..." :bar="..." @update="..."/>` with `<Child />`.
-   - Delete now-unused local state, watchers, and computed values that existed only to feed the child.
-
-4. **Events**
-   - Keep only user-interaction events (e.g., `submitted`). Remove persistence/logic events that the child now owns.
-
-5. **Tests**
-   - Update unit tests to mount child in isolation; mock settings I/O.
-   - Verify: hydrate on mount, persist on change, safe fallback on error.
-
---
-
-## When Exceptions Are Acceptable
-
- **Truly Global State** across distant components → use Pinia/service *sparingly*.
- **Reusable Form Inputs** → accept `value` prop and emit `input`/`update:modelValue`; keep validation/business logic internal.
- **Configuration-Only Props** for labels, visual variants, or limits — not for state that can be fetched.
-
---
-
-## Definition of Done (Checklist)
-
- [ ] No props required for internal state or settings-backed values.
- [ ] Uses `PlatformServiceMixin` for all settings I/O.
- [ ] Hydrates on `mounted()`, persists on mutations.
- [ ] Single-responsibility: UI + logic + persistence together.
- [ ] Computed getters for derived state.
- [ ] Unit tests mock settings and cover hydrate/persist/failure paths.
- [ ] Parent components contain no leftover `notifying-*` or similar prop wiring.
-
---
-
-## Testing Snippets
-
-```ts
-// Hydration on mount
-test("hydrates from settings on mount", async () => {
-  const wrap = mount(MyComponent);
-  await wrap.vm.$nextTick();
-  expect((wrap.vm as any).myState).toBe(true);
-});
-```
-
-```ts
-// Mock settings methods
-jest.spyOn(wrapper.vm as any, "$accountSettings").mockResolvedValue({ mySetting: true });
-jest.spyOn(wrapper.vm as any, "$saveSettings").mockResolvedValue(void 0);
-```
-
-```ts
-// Graceful failure
-test("handles settings load failure", async () => {
-  jest.spyOn(wrapper.vm as any, "$accountSettings").mockRejectedValue(new Error("DB Error"));
-  const wrap = mount(MyComponent);
-  await wrap.vm.$nextTick();
-  expect((wrap.vm as any).myState).toBe(false); // default
-});
-```
-
---
-
-## Rationale (Short)
-
- **Concision first where appropriate** → avoid unnecessary components and API surfaces.
- **Reduced coupling** → portability and reuse when boundaries are justified.
- **Maintainability** → changes localized to the owning component.
- **Consistency** → one canonical path for settings-backed features.
-
-**Rule of thumb:** _Can this feature operate independently, and does a component materially improve isolation or testability?_ If not, keep it concise (inline or composable).

 /**
- * @file Contact Import View Component
- * @author Matthew Raymer
- *
- * This component handles the import of contacts into the TimeSafari app.
- * It supports multiple import methods and handles duplicate detection,
- * contact validation, and visibility settings.
- *
- * Import Methods:
- * 1. Direct URL Query Parameters:
- *    Example: /contact-import?contacts=[{"did":"did:example:123","name":"Alice"}]
- *
- * 2. JWT in URL Path:
- *    Example: /contact-import/eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NksifQ...
- *    - Supports both single and bulk imports
- *    - JWT payload can be either:
- *      a) Array format: { contacts: [{did: "...", name: "..."}, ...] }
- *      b) Single contact: { own: true, did: "...", name: "..." }
- *
- * 3. Manual JWT Input:
- *    - Accepts pasted JWT strings
- *    - Validates format and content before processing
- *
- * URL Examples:
- * ```
- * # Bulk import via query params
- * /contact-import?contacts=[
- *   {"did":"did:example:123","name":"Alice"},
- *   {"did":"did:example:456","name":"Bob"}
- * ]
- *
- * # Single contact via JWT
- * /contact-import/eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NksifQ.eyJvd24iOnRydWUsImRpZCI6ImRpZDpleGFtcGxlOjEyMyJ9...
- *
- * # Bulk import via JWT
- * /contact-import/eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NksifQ.eyJjb250YWN0cyI6W3siZGlkIjoiZGlkOmV4YW1wbGU6MTIzIn1dfQ...
- *
- * # Redirect to contacts page (single contact)
- * /contacts?contactJwt=eyJhbGciOiJFUzI1NksifQ...
- * ```
- *
- * Features:
- * - Automatic duplicate detection
- * - Field-by-field comparison for existing contacts
- * - Batch visibility settings
- * - Auto-import for single new contacts
- * - Error handling and validation
- *
- * State Management:
- * - Tracks existing contacts
- * - Maintains selection state for bulk imports
- * - Records differences for duplicate contacts
- * - Manages visibility settings
- *
- * Security Considerations:
- * - JWT validation for imported contacts
- * - Visibility control per contact
- * - Error handling for malformed data
- *
- * @example
- * // Component usage in router
- * {
- *   path: "/contact-import/:jwt?",
- *   name: "contact-import",
- *   component: ContactImportView
+ * ContactImportView - Contact Import and Batch Processing Page
+ * 
+ * This component handles the batch import of contacts with comprehensive
+ * validation, duplicate detection, and field comparison capabilities.
+ * It provides users with detailed information about each contact before
+ * importing, allowing them to make informed decisions about their contact list.
+ * 
+ * ## How the Contact Import Page Works
+ * 
+ * ### Page Entry and Data Processing
+ * 
+ * **Entry Points**:
+ * - **URL Parameters**: Direct navigation with contact data in URL
+ * - **Contact Input Form**: Redirected from ContactsView with parsed data
+ * - **Manual Entry**: Users can input contact data directly
+ * 
+ * **Data Processing Pipeline**:
+ * 1. **Input Validation**: Parse and validate contact data format
+ * 2. **Contact Analysis**: Check each contact against existing database
+ * 3. **Duplicate Detection**: Identify existing contacts and compare fields
+ * 4. **UI Preparation**: Prepare contact list with status indicators
+ * 
+ * ### Contact Analysis and Display
+ * 
+ * **Contact Status Classification**:
+ * - **New Contacts** (Green): Contacts not in database
+ * - **Existing Contacts** (Orange): Contacts already in database
+ * - **Identical Contacts**: Existing contacts with no field differences
+ * 
+ * **Field Comparison System**:
+ * - **Automatic Detection**: Compare all contact fields
+ * - **Difference Display**: Show old vs new values in table format
+ * - **User Decision**: Allow users to see what will be updated
+ * 
+ * **Contact List Structure**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * interface ContactImportItem {
+ *   did: string;                    // Decentralized identifier
+ *   name?: string;                  // Display name
+ *   publicKey?: string;             // Public key
+ *   publicKeyBase64?: string;       // Base64 encoded key
+ *   status: 'new' | 'existing';    // Import status
+ *   differences?: FieldDifferences; // Field comparison results
 * }
- *
- * @see {@link Contact} for contact data structure
- * @see {@link setVisibilityUtil} for visibility management
+ * ```
+ * 
+ * ### User Interface Components
+ * 
+ * **Header Section**:
+ * - **Back Navigation**: Return to previous page
+ * - **Page Title**: "Contact Import" heading
+ * - **Loading State**: Spinner during data processing
+ * 
+ * **Visibility Settings**:
+ * - **Activity Visibility Checkbox**: Control activity sharing with imported contacts
+ * - **Global Setting**: Applies to all contacts being imported
+ * 
+ * **Contact List Display**:
+ * - **Contact Cards**: Individual contact information with:
+ *   - Selection checkbox for import control
+ *   - Contact name and DID display
+ *   - Status indicator (New/Existing)
+ *   - Field comparison table for existing contacts
+ * 
+ * **Field Comparison Table**:
+ * - **Three-Column Layout**: Field name, old value, new value
+ * - **Difference Highlighting**: Clear visual indication of changes
+ * - **Comprehensive Coverage**: All contact fields are compared
+ * 
+ * **Import Controls**:
+ * - **Select All/None**: Bulk selection controls
+ * - **Individual Selection**: Per-contact import control
+ * - **Import Button**: Execute the selected imports
+ * 
+ * ### Data Processing Logic
+ * 
+ * **Contact Validation**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * // Validate DID format
+ * const isValidDid = (did: string): boolean => {
+ *   return did.startsWith('did:') && did.length > 10;
+ * };
+ * 
+ * // Check for existing contact
+ * const existingContact = await $getContact(did);
+ * const isExisting = existingContact !== null;
+ * ```
+ * 
+ * **Field Comparison Algorithm**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * // Compare contact fields
+ * const compareFields = (existing: Contact, importing: Contact) => {
+ *   const differences: FieldDifferences = {};
+ *   
+ *   for (const field of ['name', 'publicKey', 'publicKeyBase64']) {
+ *     if (existing[field] !== importing[field]) {
+ *       differences[field] = {
+ *         old: existing[field] || '',
+ *         new: importing[field] || ''
+ *       };
+ *     }
+ *   }
+ *   
+ *   return differences;
+ * };
+ * ```
+ * 
+ * **Import Decision Logic**:
+ * - **New Contact**: Add to database with all provided fields
+ * - **Existing Contact with Differences**: Update with new field values
+ * - **Existing Contact without Differences**: Skip import (already identical)
+ * - **Invalid Contact**: Skip import and show error
+ * 
+ * ### Batch Import Process
+ * 
+ * **Pre-Import Validation**:
+ * - Verify all selected contacts are valid
+ * - Check database constraints
+ * - Validate visibility settings
+ * 
+ * **Database Transaction**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * // Execute batch import
+ * const importContacts = async () => {
+ *   const selectedContacts = contactsImporting.filter((_, index) => 
+ *     contactsSelected[index]
+ *   );
+ *   
+ *   await $beginTransaction();
+ *   
+ *   try {
+ *     for (const contact of selectedContacts) {
+ *       if (contactsExisting[contact.did]) {
+ *         await $updateContact(contact.did, contact);
+ *       } else {
+ *         await $addContact(contact);
+ *       }
+ *     }
+ *     
+ *     await $commitTransaction();
+ *     notify.success('Contacts imported successfully');
+ *   } catch (error) {
+ *     await $rollbackTransaction();
+ *     notify.error('Import failed: ' + error.message);
+ *   }
+ * };
+ * ```
+ * 
+ * **Post-Import Actions**:
+ * - Update contact list in parent component
+ * - Apply visibility settings if enabled
+ * - Navigate back to contacts list
+ * - Display success/error notifications
+ * 
+ * ### Error Handling and Edge Cases
+ * 
+ * **Input Validation Errors**:
+ * - Malformed JSON data
+ * - Invalid DID format
+ * - Missing required fields
+ * - Empty contact arrays
+ * 
+ * **Database Errors**:
+ * - Constraint violations
+ * - Storage quota exceeded
+ * - Concurrent access conflicts
+ * - Transaction failures
+ * 
+ * **UI Error Recovery**:
+ * - Graceful handling of network failures
+ * - Retry mechanisms for failed operations
+ * - Clear error messages for users
+ * - Fallback options for unsupported features
+ * 
+ * ### Performance Optimizations
+ * 
+ * **Efficient Processing**:
+ * - Batch database operations
+ * - Optimized field comparison algorithms
+ * - Lazy loading of contact details
+ * - Debounced UI updates
+ * 
+ * **Memory Management**:
+ * - Cleanup of temporary data structures
+ * - Proper disposal of event listeners
+ * - Efficient state management
+ * - Garbage collection optimization
+ * 
+ * **UI Responsiveness**:
+ * - Asynchronous data processing
+ * - Progressive loading of contact data
+ * - Non-blocking UI updates
+ * - Optimized rendering for large lists
+ * 
+ * ### Integration Points
+ * 
+ * **Database Integration**:
+ * - PlatformServiceMixin for database operations
+ * - Transaction-based data integrity
+ * - Optimized queries for contact retrieval
+ * - Proper error handling and rollback
+ * 
+ * **Navigation Integration**:
+ * - Route-based data passing
+ * - Deep linking support
+ * - Back navigation handling
+ * - Modal dialog management
+ * 
+ * **Notification System**:
+ * - Success/error message display
+ * - Progress indication during import
+ * - User feedback for all operations
+ * - Accessibility-compliant notifications

+/**
+ * ContactsView - Main Contacts Management Page
+ * 
+ * This component serves as the central hub for contact management in Time Safari.
+ * It provides a comprehensive interface for viewing, adding, importing, and managing
+ * contacts with various input methods and bulk operations.
+ * 
+ * ## How the Contacts Page Works
+ * 
+ * ### Contact Input and Import Workflow
+ * 
+ * **ContactInputForm Component**:
+ * - **Input Field**: Accepts contact data in multiple formats:
+ *   - Individual contact: `"did:ethr:0x..., Alice, publicKey"`
+ *   - JSON array: `"Paste this: [{"did":"did:ethr:0x...","name":"Alice"}]"`
+ *   - URL with contact data: `"https://example.com/contact-data"`
+ * - **Add Button**: Triggers contact processing and validation
+ * - **QR Scanner**: Alternative input method for mobile devices
+ * - **Real-time Validation**: Checks DID format and required fields
+ * 
+ * **Contact Processing Logic**:
+ * 1. **Input Parsing**: The system parses the input to determine format
+ * 2. **Data Validation**: Validates DID format and required fields
+ * 3. **Duplicate Detection**: Checks if contact already exists
+ * 4. **Import Decision**: 
+ *    - Single contact: Direct addition to database
+ *    - Multiple contacts: Redirect to ContactImportView for batch processing
+ *    - Invalid data: Display error message
+ * 
+ * **Import Workflow**:
+ * - **Single Contact**: Added directly with success notification
+ * - **Multiple Contacts**: Redirected to ContactImportView for:
+ *   - Contact comparison and selection
+ *   - Field difference display
+ *   - Batch import execution
+ *   - Visibility settings configuration
+ * 
+ * ### Contact List Management
+ * 
+ * **ContactListItem Components**:
+ * - **Contact Display**: Name, DID, and identicon
+ * - **Selection Checkboxes**: For bulk operations
+ * - **Action Buttons**: Gift, offer, and contact management
+ * - **Status Indicators**: Online/offline status, activity visibility
+ * 
+ * **Bulk Operations**:
+ * - **Select All**: Toggle selection of all contacts
+ * - **Copy Selected**: Export selected contacts as JSON/CSV
+ * - **Bulk Actions**: Gift amounts, visibility settings
+ * 
+ * **Contact Actions**:
+ * - **Gift Dialog**: Record gifts given to/received from contact
+ * - **Offer Dialog**: Create and manage offers
+ * - **Contact Edit**: Modify contact information
+ * - **Large Identicon**: View full-size contact identicon
+ * 
+ * ### Data Flow and State Management
+ * 
+ * **Contact Data Structure**:
+ * ```typescript
+ * interface Contact {
+ *   did: string;           // Decentralized identifier
+ *   name?: string;         // Display name (optional)
+ *   publicKey?: string;    // Public key for verification
+ *   publicKeyBase64?: string; // Base64 encoded public key
+ *   visibility?: boolean;  // Activity visibility setting
+ * }
+ * ```
+ * 
+ * **State Management**:
+ * - **Contact List**: Reactive list of all user contacts
+ * - **Selection State**: Track selected contacts for bulk operations
+ * - **UI State**: Toggle visibility of give totals, actions, etc.
+ * - **Modal State**: Manage dialog visibility and data
+ * 
+ * **Database Operations**:
+ * - **Contact Addition**: Add new contacts with validation
+ * - **Contact Updates**: Modify existing contact information
+ * - **Contact Deletion**: Remove contacts (with confirmation)
+ * - **Bulk Operations**: Process multiple contacts efficiently
+ * 
+ * ### Error Handling and User Feedback
+ * 
+ * **Input Validation Errors**:
+ * - Invalid DID format
+ * - Missing required fields
+ * - Malformed JSON data
+ * - Network errors for URL-based imports
+ * 
+ * **User Notifications**:
+ * - Success messages for successful operations
+ * - Error messages with specific details
+ * - Warning messages for potential issues
+ * - Confirmation dialogs for destructive actions
+ * 
+ * **Error Recovery**:
+ * - Graceful handling of network failures
+ * - Retry mechanisms for failed operations
+ * - Fallback options for unsupported features
+ * 
+ * ### Performance Optimizations

- * - Closes onboarding dialog
- * - Verifies success message
- * - Dismisses info alerts
+ * Navigation & UI:
+ * - Onboarding close: '[data-testid="closeOnboardingAndFinish"]'
+ * - Home page: './' (relative URL)
+ * - Alert dismissal: 'div[role="alert"] button > svg.fa-xmark'
+ * - Success message: 'text="That gift was recorded."'
 * 
- * State Requirements:
- * - Clean database state
- * - User 00 imported
- * - Available API rate limits
+ * Verification Elements:
+ * - Gift list item: 'li:first-child' (filtered by title)
+ * - Info link: '[data-testid="circle-info-link"]'
+ * - Details heading: 'h2[name="Verifiable Claim Details"]'

+ * ================================================================================
+ * ERROR HANDLING & DEBUGGING
+ * ================================================================================
 * 
- * @see Documentation in usage-guide.md for gift recording workflows
- * @requires @playwright/test
- * @requires ./testUtils - For user management utilities
+ * Common Failure Points:
+ * 1. Onboarding Dialog
+ *    - Issue: Dialog doesn't close properly
+ *    - Debug: Check if closeOnboardingAndFinish button exists
+ *    - Fix: Add wait for dialog to be visible before clicking
 * 
- * @example Basic gift recording
- * ```typescript
- * await page.getByPlaceholder('What was given').fill('Gift abc123');
- * await page.getByRole('spinbutton').fill('42');
- * await page.getByRole('button', { name: 'Sign & Send' }).click();
- * await expect(page.getByText('That gift was recorded.')).toBeVisible();
+ * 2. Recipient Selection
+ *    - Issue: "Unnamed" recipient not found
+ *    - Debug: Check if recipient list is populated
+ *    - Fix: Add wait for list to load before filtering
+ * 
+ * 3. Form Submission
+ *    - Issue: "Sign & Send" button not clickable
+ *    - Debug: Check if form is valid and all fields filled
+ *    - Fix: Add validation before submission
+ * 
+ * 4. Success Verification
+ *    - Issue: Success message doesn't appear
+ *    - Debug: Check network requests and JWT signing
+ *    - Fix: Add longer timeout for signing process
+ * 
+ * 5. Home View Refresh
+ *    - Issue: Gift doesn't appear in list
+ *    - Debug: Check if gift was actually recorded
+ *    - Fix: Add wait for home view to reload
+ * 
+ * 6. Public Server Integration
+ *    - Issue: Popup doesn't open or wrong URL
+ *    - Debug: Check if public server is accessible
+ *    - Fix: Verify endorser server configuration
+ * 
+ * Debugging Commands:
+ * ```bash
+ * # Run with trace for detailed debugging
+ * npx playwright test 30-record-gift.spec.ts --trace on
+ * 
+ * # Run with headed browser for visual debugging
+ * npx playwright test 30-record-gift.spec.ts --headed
+ * 
+ * # Run with slow motion for step-by-step debugging
+ * npx playwright test 30-record-gift.spec.ts --debug
+ * ```
+ * 
+ * ================================================================================
+ * BROWSER COMPATIBILITY
+ * ================================================================================
+ * 
+ * Tested Browsers:
+ * - Chromium: Primary target, full functionality
+ * - Firefox: Secondary target, may have timing differences
+ * 
+ * Browser-Specific Considerations:
+ * - Firefox: May require longer timeouts for form interactions
+ * - Chromium: Generally faster, more reliable
+ * - Both: Popup handling may differ slightly
+ * 
+ * ================================================================================
+ * PERFORMANCE CONSIDERATIONS
+ * ================================================================================
+ * 
+ * Expected Timings:
+ * - Data generation: < 1ms
+ * - User import: 2-5 seconds
+ * - Form filling: 1-2 seconds
+ * - JWT signing: 3-8 seconds
+ * - Home refresh: 2-4 seconds
+ * - Public server: 1-3 seconds
+ * 
+ * Total expected runtime: 10-20 seconds
+ * 
+ * Performance Monitoring:
+ * - Monitor JWT signing time (most variable)
+ * - Track home view refresh time
+ * - Watch for memory leaks in popup handling
+ * 
+ * ================================================================================
+ * MAINTENANCE GUIDELINES
+ * ================================================================================
+ * 
+ * When Modifying This Test:
+ * 1. Update version number and lastModified date
+ * 2. Test on both Chromium and Firefox
+ * 3. Verify with different random data sets
+ * 4. Check that public server integration still works
+ * 5. Update selector references if UI changes
+ * 
+ * Related Files to Monitor:
+ * - src/views/RecordGiftView.vue (gift recording UI)
+ * - src/views/HomeView.vue (gift display)
+ * - sw_scripts/safari-notifications.js (JWT signing)
+ * - src/libs/endorserServer.ts (API integration)
+ * - test-playwright/testUtils.ts (user management)
+ * 
+ * ================================================================================
+ * INTEGRATION POINTS
+ * ================================================================================
+ * 
+ * Dependencies:
+ * - User 00 must be available in test data
+ * - Endorser server must be running and accessible
+ * - Public server must be configured correctly
+ * - JWT signing must be functional
+ * 
+ * API Endpoints Used:
+ * - POST /api/claims (gift recording)
+ * - GET /api/claims (public verification)
+ * - WebSocket connections for real-time updates
+ * 
+ * ================================================================================
+ * SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS
+ * ================================================================================
+ * 
+ * Test Data Security:
+ * - Random data prevents test interference
+ * - No sensitive information in test gifts
+ * - Public server verification is read-only
+ * 
+ * JWT Handling:
+ * - Test uses test user credentials
+ * - Signing process is isolated
+ * - No production keys used
+ * 
+ * ================================================================================
+ * RELATED DOCUMENTATION
+ * ================================================================================
