Scope

Verification & Validation

• Ensure all creation budget constraints are properly enforced
• Validate character data completeness before finalization
• Verify all archetype paths work correctly (Mundane, Magician, Technomancer, Adept, Mystic Adept)

UX Polish

• Review and fix any UI/UX inconsistencies
• Ensure responsive layout works across screen sizes
• Verify auto-save functionality works reliably
• Test draft recovery scenarios

Code Quality

• Address any linting issues
• Ensure type safety throughout creation flow
• Clean up any dead code identified by Knip

Context

This is the final polish pass on the creation sheet (/characters/create/sheet) before shifting focus to the gameplay character sheet (/characters/[id]).

Acceptance Criteria

Next Steps

Ready to proceed with:

1. Verification & Validation - test all archetype paths with corrected data
2. UX Polish - review UI consistency and responsive layout
3. Code Quality - run Knip, address linting issues

Sub-Issues Created

The remaining work has been broken down into three detailed issues:

Issue	Category	Scope
#120	Verification & Validation	Test all 5 archetype paths (Mundane, Magician, Technomancer, Adept, Mystic Adept) with budget constraint verification
#121	UX Polish	Review 53 creation components for UI consistency, responsive layout, auto-save, and accessibility
#122	Code Quality	Fix 216 lint warnings, run Knip for dead code, ensure type safety

Recommended Order

1. Creation Code Quality: Lint, Types, and Dead Code Cleanup #122 Code Quality - Clean foundation before testing
2. Creation Verification: Test All Archetype Paths #120 Verification - Test all paths with clean code
3. Creation UX Polish: UI Consistency & Responsive Layout #121 UX Polish - Final visual/interaction polish

This issue (#95) will be closed when all three sub-issues are complete.
