A full-window button beside Dock (and a double-click on the title bar)
makes the window fill the ComfyUI page, remembered; it is neither dragged
nor resized then, and docking turns it off. Voice-over: one row per line
card, a divider between the lines and the generating side (dragged and
remembered, ui_split_bar.js; about half each by default), "Into your own
workflow" folded, who reads and their voices on one row, the how-to line
only until there are lines. On a wide side the modes' scale and numbers
are shown open unless the fold was closed before.

The browser now navigates from one narrow icon rail on the left: Home, Models,
Gallery, Workflows, Materials, then Voices and Audio, then scan, Model Doctor,
Node Assistant and the toolbox, with settings at the bottom. It replaces the
header tabs, the image/audio toggle and the tool bar under the folder list, so
the list column holds only a list and can close without hiding a command.
- ui_shell_rail.js builds the rail; ui_shell_nav.js owns goTo(page), which page
has a list and whether it is open (remembered per page; below 760 px it starts
closed and overlays), the page title in the header and the page reopened next
time. Clicking the current page's icon toggles its list (from a model's detail
it returns to the grid).
- ui_home.js: task cards and first steps; the first open lands there.
- Window drag/resize moved to ui_shell_frame.js and scan polling to
ui_scan_watch.js; ui_sidebar.js goes from 864 to 464 lines.
- Workspaces (recipes, notes, materials) keep the rail visible; the list steps
aside while one is open.
- Removed what the rail replaced: sidebar_actions.js (bottom-bar hover labels and
tooltip bubble), the domain toggle button, their CSS and unused text keys.
- Spotlight tour: the rail step replaces the header-tabs step, cards open to the
right of rail items, and the audio tour points at the rail's Audio entry.
- Decision record AD-017; architecture map, frontend and update-guide docs.
