+# Fix Problems Policy
+
+## Core Principle
+VERY IMPORTANT: When encountering ANY problem in the code—such as TypeScript errors, linting issues, runtime bugs, accessibility violations, or performance problems—you or any other problem MUST find a proper way to fix it. Do NOT silence, suppress, or avoid the problem using workarounds like `// @ts-ignore`, `any` types, or ignoring linter warnings.
+
+## Preferred Approaches
+- **Refactor for correctness**: Resolve issues by improving the code structure, using precise types, type guards, proper error handling, and best practices.
+- **Investigate root causes**: Use tools like debugging, logging, or code searches to understand why the problem occurs before fixing it.
+- **Align with existing rules**: Follow related policies such as the Fix TypeScript Errors Policy (adapt for other languages), ESLint configurations, and accessibility guidelines.
+- **Test the fix**: After fixing, verify with tests, linting runs (e.g., `yarn lint:fix`), or manual checks to ensure the problem is truly resolved without introducing new issues.
+- **Terminal commands**: if you run a command in the terminal make sure to set timeout so the command is not being executed indefinitely
+
+## When to Apply
+- During any code editing, reviewing, or generation task.
+- Proactively scan for and fix problems in affected files using available tools (e.g., read_lints, grep, codebase_search).
+- If a problem persists after reasonable efforts, document it clearly and suggest next steps rather than suppressing it.
+
+## Notes
+- This policy promotes robust, high-quality code that is easier to maintain and less prone to future issues.
+- If unsure how to fix a problem, use tools to gather more information or break it into smaller, solvable parts rather than bypassing it.

+description: Enforce accessibility best practices so all users can use the application
+globs:
+---
+
+### Accessibility guidance (must follow)
+
+- Semantics first
+  - Prefer semantic HTML (`button`, `a`, `nav`, `main`, `header`, `footer`, `ul/ol/li`, `table/th/td`) over generic `div`/`span`.
+  - Use `button` for actions and `a`/`Link` for navigation. Do not use click handlers on non-interactive elements. If unavoidable, add `role="button"`, `tabIndex={0}`, and keyboard handlers for Enter/Space.
+
+- Keyboard support
+  - All interactive controls must be reachable via Tab and operable via keyboard.
+  - Do not remove focus outlines. If customizing, ensure visible `:focus-visible` styles with sufficient contrast.
+  - Preserve a logical tab order; avoid `tabIndex` > 0.
+
+- Focus management
+  - On opening modals/drawers/popovers: move focus inside, trap focus, and restore focus to the trigger on close.
+  - Provide a skip link to main content (e.g., `href="#main"`) and landmark roles (`<main>`, `<nav>`, `<header>`, `<footer>`).
+
+- Images and media
+  - Every `img` must have an appropriate `alt`. If decorative, use `alt=""` and `aria-hidden="true"`.
+  - Provide captions/subtitles for video/audio when applicable.
+  - For lazy-loaded images with skeletons, mark skeletons `aria-hidden="true"` and set container `aria-busy` while loading.
+
+- Forms
+  - Inputs require visible labels bound via `<label htmlFor>` or `aria-label`/`aria-labelledby`.
+  - Indicate errors with `aria-invalid` and associate helper/error text via `aria-describedby`.
+
+- Live updates and async content
+  - For dynamic status (loading/completion), use `aria-live="polite"` (or `assertive` if critical).
+  - Spinners should have `aria-label` or be hidden (`aria-hidden="true"`) with a separate live region announcing status.
+
+- Headings and structure
+  - Maintain a logical heading hierarchy without skipping levels.
+  - Use list semantics for collections.
+
+- Color and contrast
+  - Ensure WCAG 2.1 AA contrast: 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large or bold text and UI components, including focus and hover states. When placing text over images, add an overlay or background.
+  - Do not convey information by color alone; add icons/text.
+
+- Motion and reduced motion
+  - Respect `prefers-reduced-motion: reduce`. Disable or simplify non-essential animations.
+  - In React animations, gate effects with `gsap.matchMedia('(prefers-reduced-motion: no-preference)')` and provide a reduced-motion path.
+  - Example usage exists in [AnnouncementsFeedContent.tsx](mdc:src/frontend/src/features/AnnouncementsFeed/ui/AnnouncementsFeedContent.tsx).
+  - Vanilla CSS example using the `prefers-reduced-motion` media query:
+
+```css
+/* Default animations */
+.card {
+  transition: transform 300ms ease, opacity 300ms ease;
+}
+.card:hover {
+  transform: translateY(-4px);
+  opacity: 0.95;
+}
+
+/* Reduced motion: remove transforms and long transitions */
+@media (prefers-reduced-motion: reduce) {
+  * {
+    animation: none !important;
+    transition-duration: 0.01ms !important; /* effectively no transition */
+    scroll-behavior: auto !important;
+  }
+  .card:hover {
+    transform: none;
+    opacity: 1;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+- Tables and data
+  - Use `<th scope>` for headers, provide captions when helpful. Avoid layout tables.
+
+- Testing
+  - Prefer `@testing-library` queries by role/name (`getByRole`, `getByLabelText`) to reflect real accessibility.
+
+### React implementation tips
+
+- Announce route changes by updating `document.title` and placing page content in a `<main id="main">` region.
+- When building composite widgets (tabs, accordions), follow the relevant ARIA patterns (roles, `aria-selected`, `aria-controls`) only when semantics are not achievable with native elements.
+- For card components that wrap links, ensure the entire card is a single focusable link (as with `Link`) and include descriptive link text or `aria-label` if needed.
+
+### Code patterns
+
+```tsx
+// Accessible button vs. link
+<button type="button" onClick={handleAction}>Do action</button>
+<Link to="/path">Go to details</Link>
+
+// Custom interactive element (only if you cannot use <button>)
+<div
+  role="button"
+  tabIndex={0}
+  onKeyDown={(e) => {
+    const isEnter = e.key === 'Enter' || e.code === 'Enter';
+    const isSpace = e.key === ' ' || e.key === 'Spacebar' || e.code === 'Space';
+
+    if (isEnter) {
+      onClick();
+    }
+    if (isSpace) {
+      e.preventDefault();
+    }
+  }}
+  onKeyUp={(e) => {
+    const isSpace = e.key === ' ' || e.key === 'Spacebar' || e.code === 'Space';
+    if (isSpace) {
+      onClick();
+    }
+  }}
+  onClick={onClick}
+/>
+```
+
+### Notes
+
+- Use ARIA to enhance semantics, not replace them. Avoid redundant roles on native elements.
+- If a component is purely decorative (e.g., background clouds), set `aria-hidden="true"` and remove from the tab order.

+  - `yarn lint:fix`
+
+### Notes
+
+- If ESLint and Prettier interact, follow the ESLint-integrated Prettier setup from the configs.
+- For styles-in-JS (e.g., styled-components), follow any ESLint plugin guidance present; do not invent property ordering rules.

+- **Core Principle**: Always resolve TypeScript errors by refactoring code to be type-safe, rather than suppressing them with `any`, `// @ts-ignore`, or similar workarounds.

+  - For any TypeScript files (`.ts`, `.tsx`), prioritize fixing errors during edits.
+  - After making changes, run `yarn lint:fix` or similar commands to ensure compliance.
+- **Alignment with Existing Rules**:
+  - This reinforces the ESLint Fix-First Policy: Fix issues flagged by TypeScript/ESLint by improving code, not silencing linters.
+  - Ensure accessibility and best practices are maintained while resolving types.
+- **Notes**:
+  - If a TypeScript error persists after reasonable refactoring, consult the ESLint configuration or seek clarification on intended behavior, but do not suppress it locally.
+  - Promote code that is both type-safe and adheres to React/JS best practices.

+---
+
+# Frontend Simplicity Principle
+
+When working on frontend tasks, prioritize simple, straightforward solutions over complex implementations.
+
+## Guidelines
+
+### Keep it simple
+- **Prefer basic approaches**: Choose standard patterns over custom abstractions unless there's a clear benefit
+- **Avoid premature optimization**: Don't add complexity for performance gains that haven't been measured
+- **Use existing libraries**: Leverage well-established libraries rather than building custom solutions
+
+### Component design
+- **Single responsibility**: Components should do one thing well
+- **Avoid deep nesting**: Keep component trees shallow and manageable
+- **Prefer composition over inheritance**: Use composition patterns for reusable behavior
+
+### State management
+- **Local state first**: Use local component state before reaching for global state management
+- **Simple patterns**: Prefer useState/useReducer over complex state machines unless necessary
+- **Avoid over-abstraction**: Don't create unnecessary abstractions for simple state logic
+
+### Code organization
+- **Clear naming**: Use descriptive names that explain the purpose
+- **Minimal files**: Avoid splitting simple features across multiple files
+- **Straightforward logic**: Write code that's easy to follow and debug
+
+### When complexity is justified
+Only add complexity when:
+- It solves a measured performance problem
+- It significantly improves user experience
+- It enables critical functionality
+- The team agrees it's necessary
+
+## Examples
+
+```tsx
+// ✅ Simple and clear
+const UserProfile = ({ user }) => {
+  const [isEditing, setIsEditing] = useState(false);
+
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <h2>{user.name}</h2>
+      {isEditing ? (
+        <EditForm onSave={() => setIsEditing(false)} />
+      ) : (
+        <button onClick={() => setIsEditing(true)}>Edit</button>
+      )}
+    </div>
+  );
+};
+
+// ❌ Overcomplicated
+const UserProfile = ({ user }) => {
+  const [state, dispatch] = useReducer(profileReducer, initialProfileState);
+  const editingContext = useContext(EditingContext);
+  const formManager = useFormManager();
+
+  // Complex logic that could be simplified...
+};
+```
+
+Remember: Code is read more than it's written. Choose the solution that future developers can understand quickly.

+description: Policy for handling ESLint issues by preferring autofix with yarn lint:fix
+globs:
+---
+
+# Lint Fix Policy
+
+When encountering ANY ESLint problem:
+
+## Core Steps
+1. **ALWAYS try autofix first**: Run `yarn lint:fix` (or the equivalent command for the subproject) to automatically resolve the issue.
+   - For frontend: From the workspace root, run `cd packages/frontend && yarn lint:fix`
+   - If targeting specific files: `cd packages/frontend && yarn eslint "path/to/file.tsx" --fix`
+
+2. **ONLY manual fix if autofix fails**: If `yarn lint:fix` does not resolve the issue, manually edit the code to comply with ESLint rules.
+   - Defer to the ESLint configuration as the source of truth: [eslint.config.js](mdc:eslint.config.js) for frontend.
+   - Do not invent custom style rules; follow ESLint and integrated Prettier setups exactly.
+   - After manual fixes, re-run `yarn lint` to verify resolution.
+
+## Notes
+- Prefer `yarn lint:fix` over ad-hoc formatting to ensure consistency.
+- If ESLint interacts with Prettier, let ESLint enforce the rules.
+- For uncertainty, consult ESLint configs before manual changes.
+- Proactively use this during code edits, reviews, or generations to maintain high-quality code.

+
+- **Use shared fixtures**
+  - Import `test`/`expect` from `[fixtures.ts](mdc:tests/Dodo.KnowledgeBase.Ui/fixtures/fixtures.ts)` so page objects, API helpers, and auth utilities stay consistent.
+  - Prefer the `storedCookies` fixture when a test needs an authenticated context to avoid duplicate login work.
+
+- **Lean on helpers and page objects**
+  - Reuse the page-object classes in `[pages/](mdc:tests/Dodo.KnowledgeBase.Ui/pages)` for interactions; add new methods there instead of ad-hoc selectors in specs.
+  - Wrap navigation, assertions, and Allure metadata with `test.step` via `[utils/helpers.ts](mdc:tests/Dodo.KnowledgeBase.Ui/utils/helpers.ts)` for richer reporting.
+
+- **Prefer resilient, accessible locators**
+  - Target elements by role, label, or text when possible (e.g., `page.getByRole('button', { name: '...' })`) before falling back to CSS/XPath.
+  - Mirror the app’s accessibility requirements—favor semantic selectors over brittle DOM structure hooks.
+
+- **Keep tests focused and deterministic**
+  - Scope each spec to a single feature/flow; move common setup into `test.beforeEach` blocks using helpers.
+
+- **Leverage configuration**
+  - Align new suites with existing Playwright projects defined in `[playwright.config.ts](mdc:playwright.config.ts)`; extend `testMatch` rather than spinning up new configs.
+  - Respect shared `use` options (locale, screenshots, traces) to keep reports uniform.
+
+- **AVOID using mocks unless it's necessary**
+  - When writing tests prefer actual data instead of using mocks to test actual behavior.
+
+- **Do not @allure.id to tests**
+  - Adding @allure.id is handled on the user's side DO NOT add it yourself.
+
+- **Document Allure hierarchy**
+  - Call `Helpers.addAllureHierarchy` at suite setup (see `[auth-tests.spec.ts](mdc:tests/Dodo.KnowledgeBase.Ui/auth-tests.spec.ts)`) so new tests appear correctly in TestOps.
+
+- **Running locally**
+  - Follow the workflow in `[README.md](mdc:README.md#L51)` (`yarn --cwd src/frontend serve` + `yarn e2e:ui`) when validating new specs.
