Swaps the role of `:root` (now light) and the data-theme attribute
(now `[data-theme="dark"]`) in cassandra.css, flips the localStorage
fallback from 'dark' to 'light' in base/login/verify templates, and
updates the theme-toggle label and the branding-consistency test
selectors to match.
Existing users with cassandra.theme=dark in localStorage still see
dark — their explicit preference wins. Only first-time visitors and
users with no stored preference shift to light.

The product is now "Read the Markets" served at https://read.markets,
with the app at https://app.read.markets. "Cassandra" survives only as
the in-product AI persona (system prompt + "Ask Cassandra" chat label).
Centralised the brand in app/branding.py: BRAND_NAME, BRAND_SHORT,
DOMAIN, SITE_URL, APP_URL, EMAIL_FROM_DEFAULT. Jinja templates pull
{{ BRAND_NAME }} via globals registered in templates_env.py; Python
code reads branding.BRAND_NAME directly. The future-rename surface
is now a one-liner.
Updated: FastAPI app title, every page title (dashboard, news, log,
settings, upload, login, verify), header brand div, auth-card brands,
OTP email subject + HTML + plain-text bodies (incl. uppercase header
tag), OpenRouter X-Title + HTTP-Referer attribution headers, README.
Email tests now assert against branding.BRAND_NAME rather than the
literal string.
Internal identifiers deliberately kept on the legacy "cassandra" name
to avoid invalidating live sessions / advisory locks / configs:
cookies (cassandra_session, cassandra_pending) + itsdangerous salts,
MariaDB GET_LOCK keys, CASSANDRA_TOKEN env var, cassandra.css filename,
pyproject package name, localStorage prefs, outbound User-Agent strings.

Server no longer holds portfolios. Holdings live in the browser
(localStorage); the server publishes an anonymous ticker_universe and a
gzipped /api/universe payload identical for every authenticated user, so
access patterns can't betray which tickers a user holds. AI commentary
is generated ephemerally from the browser-supplied pie and the cost
ledger row records no positions. Migrations 0009-0011 added the
universe table and dropped positions / portfolio_snapshots /
portfolios.
Authentication is now e-mail OTP only. Migration 0010 dropped
password_hash and email_verified (every active session is by
construction proof of email control). The /signup endpoint is gone;
signup and login share a single email-entry page. Email rendering is
HTML+plain-text multipart with a shared brand palette (app/branding.py)
asserted in sync with the CSS by a drift-detection test.
LLM provider defaults to DeepSeek-direct (cheaper, api.deepseek.com)
with OpenRouter as automatic fallback if DeepSeek fails. ai_log_job and
indicator_summary_job now iterate the two tones (NOVICE, INTERMEDIATE)
per cycle so the dashboard's tone toggle is instant; PROMPT_VERSION
bumped to 6 with an educational anti-TA / anti-gambling stance baked
into _CORE. NOVICE mode renders a curated glossary inline (CBOE VIX,
yield curve, HY OAS, etc.) with JS-positioned tooltips that survive
viewport edges and sticky bars. Model name and tokens hidden from the
user UI; still recorded in StrategicLog.model and AICall for admin.
Layout adds a sticky top nav, a sticky bottom markets bar (one chip per
exchange with status LED + headline index + 1d change), and
Phase H feedback reporting is queued in tasks/todo.md.
