v4.9.4 shipped three interaction bugs in the Flow Chart panel that combined to make it look broken at runtime: (1) .flowchart-preview-render had no min-height, so the Mermaid SVG clipped to 0 when the sidebar flex column shrank; (2) the canvas + preview hosts inherited the body.theme-concreteinfo dark theme, producing dark-on-dark nodes; (3) .flowchart-node.selected only set a 2px stroke on the rect's existing dark fill, which was effectively invisible.
Fix: styles-sidebar.css adds min-height: 120px on .flowchart-preview-render; forces a light background on .flowchart-canvas-host / .flowchart-preview-host with !important so theme inheritance cannot override it; forces explicit white fills and dark strokes on .flowchart-node rect/polygon/text and .flowchart-edge so labels read against any background; selection now changes fill (#e3f0ff) AND bumps stroke-width to 3 on both nodes and edges. renderer.js renderFlowChartMermaid now always initializes Mermaid with theme: 'default' regardless of body class — keeps the Mermaid SVG light to match the CSS-forced canvas surface.
Three new CSS regression tests in tests/flowchart-panel.test.js read the shipped stylesheet and assert the three structural invariants (non-zero min-height on render target, !important light background on canvas+preview hosts, fill + stroke-width >= 3 on .flowchart-node.selected).
Tradeoff: the flowchart surface is now always light, diverging from body theme. Visibility of a working editor is the priority per user direction.

- Add opts.onNodeClick + surgical applySelectionHighlight() so node/edge clicks immediately paint .selected and mirror id into panel state (Delete/Backspace works on freshly-clicked node).
- Add Maximize/Restore button to flowchart toolbar: toggles .main-content.flowchart-takeover which hides .editor-container and lets the canvas + preview split the full window width instead of the 280px sidebar.
- destroy() clears the takeover class so the editor stays usable after leaving the panel.
- 8 new tests in tests/flowchart-panel.test.js for selection wiring and takeover.

- AI Assistant plugin: multi-provider chat (OpenAI/Anthropic/Ollama/LM Studio),
summarize/improve/translate commands, proofread via ai:analyze; calls
proxied through main so API keys stay out of the renderer
- Collaboration plugin: anchor-based comments in .comments/ sidecars with
drift detection and F8 navigation
- Local knowledge base: [[wiki-links]] with click-to-create + Backlinks panel
- Crash recovery: debounced session snapshots with restore prompt on launch
- Version history: pre-save snapshots, History panel with restore/diff/delete
- Real PDF encryption: swap pdf-lib for @cantoo/pdf-lib (probe-driven UI)
- XLSX export (native workbooks via JSZip), ODT headers/footers + page size
- Offline KaTeX (bundled CSS+fonts), local-first PlantUML rendering
- Editor: vim mode toggle, snippet Tab-expansion, zen word-goal setter,
writing heatmap, writing-studio panels wired with rail icons
- Quick Note global scratchpad (Ctrl+Alt+Q), markdownconverter:// deep links,
REPL first-run confirmation
- Fix: Ctrl+Shift+P collision, pandoc converter availability check, CLI
dangling --css/--reference-doc flags, dead converter button
8 new test suites; 613 tests green; lint clean
Extends GitOperations.js with diff/branches/checkoutBranch/push/pull,
wires the 5 new IPC handlers in main.js (reusing the existing dir
resolution), whitelists the new channels in preload.js, and fixes the
Git sidebar panel's previously dead _gitDiff callback by wiring up a
diff view, branch list/create/checkout UI, and push/pull buttons.
Resolves Task 5, which deferred this work to this task.
