## Problem
On wiki article pages **without a ToC drawer** (most feats, short articles), the body text renders pushed ~187px to the right with an empty left gutter — it reads as a broken indent, and the same drift shows in the compose editor. Reported as "Justify broke the editor and text indent".
## Root cause
`_wiki-prose.scss` caps every prose block at `--wiki-prose-measure: 54rem` and centers it with `margin-inline: auto`. That centering only looks right when the content column is ~58rem, which the theme only sets up while a ToC drawer is open (`grid-template-columns: minmax(0,58rem) minmax(0,1fr)`). ToC-less pages run the card full page width, so the 54rem paragraph centers inside it with big symmetric gutters, while the full-width callout and fact table make it look inset.
`text-align: justify` is the sibling rule in the same block (the visible "Justify" change) but is **not** the cause — justified paragraphs render with no indent once the width is capped.
The compose editor breaks the same way: its root is `class="westgate-wiki westgate-wiki-compose"`, so the identical `.westgate-wiki .wiki-article-prose` centering leaks into the editing surface.
## Fix
Two scoped rules in the existing `@media (min-width: 1200px)` block:
- cap the reading column on non-section article pages (`.wiki-with-fab:not(.wiki-with-fab--section) .wiki-content-layout`)
- cap the compose editing surface (`.westgate-wiki-compose .wiki-compose-editor.wiki-article-prose`)
Both `max-width: 58rem; margin-inline: auto`, so the card/editor hugs the text and everything shares one left edge — matching the design's "card hugs the text block" intent and the ToC-page geometry. Section / namespace-index listings opt out and keep running full-width, left.
## Verification
Reproduced and verified with Playwright against the real compiled CSS and the real editor bundle:
- read view: description `left:268` (`margin-left:187px`) in a 1272px card → aligned with the callout in a centered 896px card
- editor: description `left:268` (callout at 19) → tidy centered 58rem column
SCSS compiles clean (`dart-sass exit=0`). Editor fix verified via local repro with the real bundle (couldn't reach the authed live editor) — worth an eyeball after deploy.

- Replaces the old news list+sidebar block with double-rule, featured-story grid, and thin-ruled row styles; keeps .sow-list-date (still used by home).
- Removes dead .sow-news-layout / .sow-list-item selectors and adds responsive rules (featured stacks headline → dateline → image → excerpt at ≤900px; rows stack image-first at ≤580px).

Justified alignment in `.wiki-article-prose` stretched bulleted `li`s inside table cells into ugly whitespace rivers (visible on spell/list tables). Now justify only applies to real reading prose (`p`, `li`), and alignment resets to `start` (hyphens off) inside `table`, `blockquote`, and `pre`.

The `.wg-topbar` background used `rgba(24, 20, 29, 0.98)`, letting page content faintly bleed through the header. Set it to a solid `rgb(24, 20, 29)` so the bar is fully opaque.
Left `$wg-topbar-panel-bg` (dropdown/drawer panels, still `0.98`) untouched — those are popovers, not the bar itself.

Closes#30. Addresses ShadowsOverWestgate/sow-nodebb#13 (theme-side). Partially addresses #33 (badge).
Three theme fixes, bundled into one branch since we squash-merge.
### #30 — index/section pages bump all text to the right
The namespace-index / section listing card carries the `wiki-article-prose` class, so the article-body **reading measure** leaked onto it: the wiki plugin caps prose children at `--wiki-prose-measure` (54rem) and the theme `margin-inline:auto`s them, pinning the *Articles* heading, lead, and page list into a narrow centered column with a big left gutter. Fix: opt `.wiki-namespace-index` descendants out of that measure/centering (full-width, left-aligned). **Verified** with a before/after render of the real section markup against the compiled CSS.
### Inter 404 (sow-nodebb#13), theme side
Harmony generates Inter/Poppins `@font-face` at our asset path and points its font variables at them, but we ship **Jost + Cinzel** and declare no `@fontsource/inter|poppins` dep, so those URLs 404 in production (they only resolve in dev via npm hoisting). Current theme source already renders everything in Jost (verified in compiled CSS), so the reported production 404 is a **stale build** — it clears once the nodebb image is rebuilt from current theme main. This PR makes it robust: pins the Harmony rules that read those vars (`.ff-sans`, `.ff-secondary`, breadcrumb divider) to our fonts, and removes the two dead staticDirs.
### #33 (part 1) — topbar unread badge didn't match its neighbours
The unread count was a static inline pill floating low/right of the inbox icon, unlike the corner-anchored badges on the notification and chat icons. Mirrored Harmony's notification markup (inner `position-relative` span + `top-0/start-100/translate-middle`) so the unread bubble tucks into the icon corner at the same size, shape, and height. **Verified**: unread and notification badges now sit identically (measured top/bottom match to the pixel).
The other half of #33 — the "dropdown doesn't work" report — is **not** included: I couldn't reproduce it on a current build (the custom unread drawer opens and lists topics on both `/categories` and `/wiki`), so it looks like the same stale-deploy story. Left open in #33 pending a repro on a fresh build before deciding whether to swap it for NodeBB's Notifications "Unread" view.
### Notes
- SCSS + templates + `plugin.json` only; no JS behavior change. `./nodebb build` compiles clean.
- Pre-existing impeccable design-drift findings in touched files are unrelated to this diff and left as-is.

Wiki article text was capping at the plugin's default 70ch measure, leaving a wide dead strip inside the article card after the ToC-dock change.
- Set `--wiki-prose-measure: 54rem` (~90ch of body text; rem so the cap also applies to large headings — ch scales with font size and never caps them)
- Justify paragraphs, list items, and blockquotes with `hyphens: auto`
- Fit the article card to the measure (58rem) and widen the docked ToC column to absorb the leftover width
- Center the prose block with 1.5rem vertical padding
Verified on the theme-dev stack against /wiki/Lore/Gond (with long filler paragraphs) at 1561px, and the wiki hub for regressions.

Adds an Unread dropdown to the topbar utilities (before notifications), per docs/superpowers/plans/2026-07-17-topbar-unread-drawer.md.
- New partial `templates/partials/header/unread-drawer.tpl`: toggle with live `component="unread/count"` badge (core socket updates), server-rendered empty/footer rows.
- `public/client.js`: on dropdown open, fetches `GET /api/unread` and injects up to 10 topic rows (titles/categories via textContent only); fetch failure falls back to the empty state.
- Mobile burger drawer gets an Unread row with the same badge.
- SCSS: unread dropdown joins the shared dropdown width rule; flex row styles for topic items.
Deviations from the plan's example code, found by live verification against the dev forum:
- Plan's `api.get('/unread')` hits the v3 write API and 404s → replaced with a fetch of the `/api/unread` read route.
- NodeBB 4 has no global `window.require`, so runtime translation of the static `[[unread:...]]` strings never ran → those strings are now server-rendered in the template (also removes the plan's translate-over-innerHTML step, which would have re-parsed untrusted titles as HTML).
Verified: full plain-node test suite passes; Playwright against the dev container passed all checks (badge count, item ordering before notifications, dropdown topic links + navigation, /unread footer link, mobile drawer badge at 390px).

- Visible focus ring on the mobile drawer search (input had `outline: 0` with no replacement)
- Input placeholder contrast raised to pass WCAG 4.5:1; tagsinput placeholder reuses the token instead of `$gray-500`
- `prefers-reduced-motion` block zeroing transitions/animations (there were none before)

- Replaces the diagonal plum/velvet panel gradients with flat subtle purples (anchored to the group-card tone `rgb(24,20,29)`); the topbar uses the same flat tone so it meshes with the panels.
- Adds a Westgate-themed 404 page ("You've wandered off the map." / Night Masks warning) with a mask icon, vertically centered in the content area. Strings live in `languages/en-GB/westgate.json`.
- Sets Bootstrap link CSS variables globally so utility-classed links (`alert-link`, `link-*`) get the wiki gold like plain anchors already did. Topic-title parchment override is untouched.

The notifications, chat, and drafts buttons had their icons pinned to the left of the hover box while search was centered.
Root cause: Harmony's notifications/chats/drafts links (pulled in at runtime from core partials, not this repo) carry Bootstrap's justify-content-between utility class, which is !important and beat the theme's justify-content: center on .wg-topbar__utility-list .nav-link. The search link doesn't have that class, so it centered correctly.

Theme half of the cross-repo wiki global search work (plugin half: sow-nodebb-plugin-wiki#12).
Search results tagged by the wiki plugin (`isWikiArticle` + `wikiPath`) now render with a gold "Wiki" badge and link to `/wiki/...` instead of `/post/...`:
- `templates/partials/quick-search-results.tpl` — navbar quick-search dropdown
- `templates/partials/search-results.tpl` — `/search` page, topics view
- `templates/partials/posts_list_item.tpl` — `/search` page, posts view (default). Shared with account/group post lists, where the wiki flags are never set and the conditional no-ops.
- `scss/westgate/_search.scss` — badge styling from existing `--wg-gold` / ledger-border tokens; imported from `theme.scss`
- `languages/en-GB/westgate.json` — `[[westgate:wiki-badge]]` label
- Spec updated with the resolved approach (template override, not client-side decoration)
Untagged forum results render byte-identical to Harmony stock.
Verification: all three overrides compiled and rendered against benchpressjs with mixed wiki/forum fixture rows (wiki row gets `/wiki/...` href + exactly one badge; forum rows keep stock `/post/...` links, `RE:` prefix and main-post icon preserved). New contract test in `tests/wiki-search-badge-contract.test.js`; suite passes except the pre-existing `global-footer-contract.test.js` failure (stale `join-the-team` link assertion from #10, also failing on main — not touched here).
End-to-end visual check (badge in the live dropdown + /search) still needs the dev stack with plugin PR #12 merged.
