MTG Python Deckbuilder ${VERSION}

Highlights

• Mobile UI polish: collapsible left sidebar with persisted state, sticky controls that respect the header, and banner subtitle that stays inline when the menu is collapsed.
• Multi-Copy is now opt-in from the New Deck modal, and suggestions are filtered to match selected themes (e.g., Rabbit Kindred → Hare Apparent).
• New Deck modal improvements: integrated commander preview, theme selection, and optional Multi-Copy in one flow.

What’s new

• Mobile & layout
  • Sidebar toggle button (persisted in localStorage), smooth hide/show.
  • Sticky build controls offset via CSS variables to avoid overlap in emulators and mobile.
  • Banner subtitle stays within the header and remains inline with the title when the sidebar is collapsed.
• Multi-Copy
  • Moved to Commander selection now instead of happening during building.
  • Opt-in checkbox in the New Deck modal; disabled by default.
  • Suggestions only appear when at least one theme is selected and are limited to archetypes whose matched tags intersect the themes.
  • Multi-Copy runs first when selected, with an applied marker to avoid redundant rebuilds.
• New Deck & Setup
  • Setup/Refresh prompt modal if the environment is missing or stale, with a clear path to run/refresh setup before building.
  • Centralized staged context creation and error/render helpers for a more robust Step 5 flow.

Notes

• Multi-Copy selection is part of the interactive New Deck modal (not a JSON field); it remains off unless explicitly enabled.
• Setup helpers: is_setup_ready() and is_setup_stale() inform the modal prompt and can be tuned with WEB_AUTO_SETUP and WEB_AUTO_REFRESH_DAYS.
• Headless parity: tag_mode (AND/OR) remains supported in JSON/env and exported in interactive run-config JSON.

Fixes

• Continue responsiveness and click reliability on mobile/emulators; sticky overlap eliminated.
• Multi-Copy application preserved across New Deck submit; duplicate re-application avoided with an applied marker.
• Banner subtitle alignment fixed in collapsed-menu mode (no overhang, no line-wrap into a new row).
• Docker: normalized line endings for entrypoint to avoid Windows checkout issues.
