Eraser tool behavior on the Background layer.
Aligning the eraser tool's functionality with common expectations in professional paint applications, where erasing on a background layer typically reveals the background color rather than being 'locked out.' This aims for intuitive user experience and feature parity with industry standards.
This issue points to a deviation from standard behavior for the eraser tool on the background layer in PhotoCraft. Instead of revealing the background color, the tool is 'locked out.' This represents a significant usability friction point for users accustomed to professional image editing softwar...

User Interface (UI) dropdown menu behavior.
Adherence to standard UI/UX expectations for desktop applications, specifically dynamic dropdown height based on content and screen real estate, avoiding unnecessary scrollbars. Aims for a 'clean-room reimplementation of Adobe Photoshop' implies matching professional application UI standards.
This issue highlights a fundamental UI/UX deficiency in PhotoCraft: fixed-height dropdown menus forcing unnecessary vertical scrolling. This deviates significantly from expected desktop application behavior, particularly for a product aiming to reimplement Adobe Photoshop. The pain point is immed...

Mechanism for disabling Apple Intelligence features on macOS.
The tool leverages deprecated macOS restriction keys and preference forcing to disable Apple Intelligence, circumventing Apple's shift towards MDM-only 'Declarative Management' for `IntelligenceSettings`. This positions the tool as a workaround for individual users lacking MDM supervision.
This discussion reveals a critical technical challenge for `RemoveMacAI`: Apple's deprecation of direct restriction keys in favor of MDM-controlled `IntelligenceSettings` via 'Declarative Management.' The tool's current reliance on deprecated keys and preference forcing highlights a cat-and-mouse...

Internationalization (i18n) defect in `aria-labels` for screen readers, specifically for diagrams and table of contents, which remain Chinese regardless of the page's displayed language.
Consistent localization for accessibility features (screen readers) across all supported languages (zh, en, ja). Alignment of `aria-label` localization with existing visible UI control language switching mechanisms.
This issue highlights a critical accessibility failure within the `answer-me-with-html` agent skill. `aria-labels` remaining in Chinese for non-Chinese language pages directly impedes screen reader usability for English and Japanese users. This is not merely a UI bug; it's a fundamental breakdown...
