Reckonsolve v0.6.0

Reckonsolve v0.6.0

Reckonsolve v0.6.0 is a comprehensive UI/UX release that gives the desktop application a calmer, more consistent, and more responsive presentation without changing its forecasting model or historical guarantees.

Highlights

• Introduced a centralized, palette-aware visual system with consistent colors, typography, spacing, panels, badges, focus states, disabled states, buttons, and local Lucide icons.
• Redesigned the application sidebar with:
  • a prominent New Prediction action;
  • permanent Dashboard, Predictions, and Analytics destinations;
  • bottom-aligned Settings;
  • expanded and compact icon-only modes; and
  • source-aware navigation back from Prediction Detail.
• Added safe persistence for window geometry, maximized state, and sidebar mode outside the canonical SQLite database.
• Redesigned Dashboard and Settings with clearer panels, status badges, empty states, persistent messages, and non-disruptive success notifications.
• Restyled Binary and Numeric creation, Prediction Detail, dialogs, timelines, history charts, metadata, lifecycle actions, and destructive actions.
• Added full desktop Numeric Edit Details support for:
  • Question;
  • Background;
  • Resolution Criteria;
  • Forecast Deadline;
  • Expected Resolution; and
  • tags.
• Preserved Numeric unit and decimal precision as immutable context.
• Rebuilt the Predictions workspace around responsive controls and results panes:
  • side-by-side at normal widths;
  • stacked at narrow widths;
  • searchable tag suggestions;
  • removable tag chips;
  • compact Common and Detailed filters;
  • cleaner Saved View controls; and
  • independent, constrained pane resizing.
• Improved Analytics presentation with:
  • compact summary cards;
  • responsive Binary and Numeric layouts;
  • side-by-side plot and table views;
  • cleaner retrospective update-feedback cards;
  • consistent chart styling; and
  • properly anchored empty states.
• Added guarded global navigation shortcuts, improved focus order, accessible descriptions, icon-only tooltips, and nonvisual chart summaries.
• Expanded automated and private frozen-build validation across every primary screen, responsive layout, forecast type, schema-v15 data, search, backup, recovery, and restart.
• Completed a manual visual-verification matrix covering light and dark palettes, 100%–200% Windows scaling, multiple window sizes, both sidebar modes, empty and populated data, keyboard interaction, and responsive layouts.

Compatibility and data safety

• Existing v0.5 databases remain fully compatible.
• The SQLite schema remains at version 15.
• No data migration is required.
• Forecast history, scoring, lifecycle behavior, search, Saved Views, tags, backup, CSV export, and CLI behavior remain unchanged.
• Presentation preferences are stored in an identity-specific presentation.ini file and do not enter forecast history, SQLite backups, CSV exports, search, analytics, or CLI output.
• Stable and development databases remain isolated.

Deliberately not included

This release does not add another forecast model, a Review Queue, a custom theme framework, logo artwork, a Windows installer, signing, automatic updates, or public binary distribution.

Reckonsolve remains an offline, local-first, single-user source release.
