UI redesign: 8 tickets from the Stitch export analysis

Browse Source 
Same shape as docs/v3/: Goal/Context/Design/Implementation/Acceptance/Tests/Risks/Out-of-scope, written before implementing.

UI-01: persistent 4-tab shell (StatefulShellRoute) replacing the current push/pop stack rooted at Record, with a single shared background map dimmed behind every tab and no header anywhere.
UI-02: animated skeleton map for the no-cache/no-network case, since the map is now a permanent background presence rather than opt-in per screen.
UI-03: shared GlassPanel/FloatingPill/PulsingLocationMarker component kit.
UI-04: draggable, resizable HUD telemetry widgets with a Settings visibility toggle -- split out from the screen redesign itself since it's a genuinely separate piece of engineering (a small widget-layout system, not a reskin).
UI-05: Map HUD/Record screen redesign -- the design north star every other screen ticket restyles toward.
UI-06: Plan & Route Planning -- correct in principle, explicitly restyled toward UI-05 rather than copying the Stitch export's drifted styling.
UI-07: Rides History -- live dimmed map background (not the mockup's static image), search/filter, real per-ride map thumbnails, and real distinct summary stats (fixing the export's 4-identical-cards generation artifact).
UI-08: theme migration to Modern Professional Dark, superseding V3-16's safety-orange direction.

README documents the dependency order, and two categories worth keeping separate: what was named explicitly by the person commissioning this (map-on-every-tab, no header, offline skeleton, customizable HUD) versus what the mockups themselves got inconsistent (nav icon count, duplicate summary cards, wrong active-tab highlight) and should not be copied as intentional.

# UI redesign tickets
Same shape as `docs/v3/`: one file per feature, Goal · Context · Design · Implementation ·
Acceptance criteria · Tests · Risks · Out of scope. Written before implementing.
Source material: `docs/design/stitch-export/` — four Stitch-generated screens (Map HUD,
Plan, Route Planning, Rides History) plus the "Modern Professional Dark" design system
actually used by all four. See that directory's `README.md` for how they were fetched and
a correction of an earlier mislabeling.
This is a **navigation-model change**, not a reskin: today's app is a stack rooted at
Record, with Trips/Settings/Routes as pushed children. The new design is a persistent
4-tab shell (Map / Rides / Plan / Settings) with the map visible, at some opacity, behind
every tab — not just the Map tab. Sequenced so the riskiest, highest-blast-radius piece
(the shell) lands first and `flutter test` stays green throughout, the same discipline
v3 held to.
## The tickets
| # | Ticket | Size | Depends on | Status |

| [UI-03](UI-03-glass-component-kit.md) | Shared floating-glass component kit | M | UI-08 | Not started |
| [UI-04](UI-04-customizable-hud-widgets.md) | Customizable HUD telemetry widgets (drag, resize, visibility toggle) | L | UI-03 | Not started |
| [UI-05](UI-05-map-hud-record-screen.md) | Map HUD: Record screen redesign | M | UI-01, UI-03, UI-04 | Not started |

## Suggested order
1. **UI-01** — the shell. Highest blast radius (touches every screen's entry point), so
get it merged and green before any visual work starts.
2. **UI-08** — theme. Every screen ticket after this needs the palette settled once, not
patched per-screen. Supersedes V3-16's safety-orange direction — see that ticket's
note.
3. **UI-02** — skeleton map. Small, and exercises the background-map plumbing UI-01 just
built while it's fresh.
4. **UI-03** — the component kit (`GlassPanel`, `FloatingPill`, `PulsingLocationMarker`).
Build once, consumed by every screen ticket.
5. **UI-04** — the customizable HUD widget system (drag/resize/persist layout, a
visibility toggle in Settings). This is its own ticket, not folded into UI-05, because
drag-and-resize-with-persisted-layout is a genuinely separate piece of engineering
from "redesign the record screen" — a small widget-layout editor in miniature.
6. **UI-05 / UI-06 / UI-07** — the three screen redesigns, in any order once everything
above is done. Each is independently shippable.
## Things named explicitly by the person who commissioned this, not inferred from the mockups
- **The map is active on every tab**, including Rides History — blurred/dimmed behind
the content cards so it doesn't compete for attention, not hidden. This wasn't visible
in the Stitch export (Rides History's HTML uses a static blurred background image, not
a live map) — it's a deliberate product decision layered on top of the mockups.
- **No header, anywhere, ever** — the stated reason is screen real estate: the point of
the redesign is to show as much map as possible, and a persistent bottom nav plus zero
header chrome is what buys that space back.
- **A no-connection skeleton map** (UI-02), rather than a blank or broken map, since the
map is now a permanent background presence on every tab rather than something opened
deliberately.
- **The telemetry HUD widgets are user-customizable** (UI-04): draggable and resizable by
the rider, and which metrics show up live at all is a Settings toggle. The Stitch
mockup's tap-to-expand interaction is a fixed layout with one temporary focus state;
this goes further — the rider chooses the layout and which stats exist on screen at
all, and it persists.
## The Map screen is the design north star
The four Stitch exports don't agree with each other on styling — expected, since each
was a separate prompt and the AI generation drifted between them. **Map HUD is the
canonical reference** for color usage, icon choice/fill-state, spacing, and component
pattern across the whole redesign. Where another screen's mockup disagrees with Map
HUD on any of those, Map HUD wins.
Plan and Route Planning are correct **in principle** — fullscreen map, floating pill
summaries, pin-drop interaction, no header — but their specific styling (icon fill
states, exact nav bar treatment, some color choices) drifted from Map HUD across
prompts and should be restyled to match it, not copied as-is. UI-06 says this again at
the point where it matters.
## What the mockups got generated inconsistently — don't copy as intentional
- Bottom nav shows 4 icons on Map HUD and Rides History, only 3 (no Settings) on the Plan
screen. Build one nav bar with 4 destinations, always.
- Rides History's summary row is 4 copies of the same "Total Dist" card. Real, distinct
summary stats are UI-06's job to define.
- Route Planning's bottom nav highlights "Rides" as active while the screen shown is
Plan — a generation slip, not a deliberate cross-tab indicator.
