Design pass on the web UI: amber for new, EQ bars, keyboard feed list

Works through TODO.md from the 2026-09-11 review. Unread badges, dots and
download bars take the icon's amber; the playing item is marked by EQ bars
that move only while it plays. The feed list is usable from the keyboard,
focus rings show everywhere, and folders get a mosaic of their shows' art
with the triangle hung in the margin. Sentence-case labels, fewer bold
weights, tinted initials tiles, shorter header lines, "Kept" everywhere,
and the list gets the room the empty panes had. Reduced motion is honoured.

+### Changed
+
+- Unread counts, unread dots and download progress are amber, the colour of the icon's EQ bars.
+  Blue is kept for the primary action and links, so a count no longer looks like a button.
+- What is playing is marked by small EQ bars, in its row and in the player. They move only while it
+  plays.
+- A folder in the sidebar shows its first four shows' art as a mosaic, and its shows sit under its
+  title. Only folders have a triangle, so every feed lines up with Directory and Popular above.
+- Feeds without art get initials in a colour of their own, instead of all the same grey.
+- The Flagged tab is called Kept, as the Keep button and Settings already said.
+- A feed's header is one short line; when it checks next is in its tooltip.
+- The item list takes more of the window, and the Files pane shows only when the item has files.
+- Column headings and tags are in sentence case, and fewer things are bold.
+- Unsubscribe is a round button beside the feed's other actions.
+- Export and Import in Settings say what they do.
+- The sign-in page shows the original icon large.
+- Nothing animates when your system asks for reduced motion.
+
 ### Fixed
 
+- The feed list works from the keyboard: Tab reaches every feed, Enter opens it, and Right and Left
+  open and close a folder. Every button shows where the focus is, including in the toolbar, which
+  used to clip the ring.
+- "1 items" reads "1 item".
+- A selected feed without art no longer loses its initials tile in Dark and Light.
+- The player shows the feed's initials when there is no art, not the episode's.
+
 - Turning on Allow explicit, or changing keywords or auto-download, brings back what those settings
   had skipped on the feed's next scan. Before, an item was judged once, when first seen, and a
   skipped one stayed skipped whatever you changed.

+## 2026-09-11 — A design pass on the web UI
+
+A review against screenshots of every view in all three themes found that Dark and Light read as a
+generic dark dashboard: one pale blue did every job, most labels were bold, and nothing led. The
+list it produced, in `TODO.md`, was worked through in one go. What was worth knowing:
+
+- **Amber means new.** Badges, unread dots and download bars take the icon's EQ amber; blue is left
+  for the primary action and links. Light's amber was `#b06f10`, which gives white text 4.1:1,
+  short of AA for 11 px bold. It is `#9a5f0a` now, 5.2:1.
+- **EQ bars mark what is playing.** Three `<i>` bars stand at 60, 100 and 40 % and animate only
+  while `body.playing` is set. The first version left the animation on but paused, expecting each
+  bar to hold a different frame. The frames it held were within a pixel of each other, and on
+  screen the bars read as three dots. Under reduced motion one rule drops every animation and
+  transition, which leaves the bars standing.
+- **The focus ring was clipped.** `.tgroup` and `#topbar` both set `overflow:hidden`, so a ring
+  drawn outside a toolbar button was cut off. Rings inside clipping parents are inset instead.
+- **The feed list could not be used from the keyboard at all.** Rows were `<div>`s and the triangle
+  a `<span>`, so Tab went from the feed filter to Sign out. Rows now take focus, the triangle is a
+  `<button aria-expanded>`, and `renderFeeds` puts focus back on the same row after redrawing,
+  since every live update replaces every row. The list's own key handler stops Space and the
+  arrows from reaching the player's shortcuts on the document.
+- **The triangle hangs in the margin.** Every row used to reserve an 18 px slot for it, pushing a
+  hundred feeds 28 px right of the places above for the sake of two folders. It is now absolutely
+  placed in the row's left padding, the full height of the row, so a near miss no longer opens
+  the folder's page.
+- **A selected tile vanished** because the initials tile and the selected row were both `--raise`.
+  Tiles now mix their tint into `--bg`, which no row uses.
+- **The Files pane hides itself** with `#split:has(>#files[hidden])`, which collapses its column.
+  The phone layout already hides the pane, and a zero-width extra track there is harmless.
+- **Flagged became Kept** in the tab, and in the server's refusal to delete a file someone else
+  kept. The filter value and the column stay `flagged`; renaming those buys nothing.
