Mike-to-PIP rename: identifiers, localStorage keys, DnD MIME types, admin branding

Four commits sweeping "Mike" out of cpatpa's codebase - browser-visible strings first, then internal TypeScript identifiers, then package names and localStorage keys - plus an admin-managed branding system for firm colour tokens and logo variants.

brandingmulti-tenant

Browser-visible pass (74e803c2, +25/-24 across 10 files). Page title, OG metadata, Twitter card, global error page, support form copy, models page description, workflow "system" badge, column-prompt placeholders, site logo wordmark. metadataBase and the landing href on the site logo now read NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL instead of the hardcoded mikeoss.com. Internal type names and the MikeIcon component are intentionally left for the follow-up.

Identifier rename (7d24a909, +359/-364 across 70 files). MikeProject, MikeChat, MikeDocument, MikeFolder, MikeMessage, MikeWorkflow, MikeIcon, MikeLayout → Pip*. mikeApi.ts → pipApi.ts; mike-icon.tsx → pip-icon.tsx. Drag-and-drop MIME-like strings application/mike-doc and application/mike-folder → pip-*. DOM custom event mike:close-row-actions → pip:close-row-actions. The backend system prompt in chatTools.ts is rewritten: "You are Mike, an AI legal assistant..." becomes a PIP-branded, AU-English-tuned prompt specifying AGLC4 citation, metric units, DD/MM/YYYY dates, a hallucination guard, and a not-legal-advice reminder. Tracked-change author and change-id prefix flip from "Mike" to "PIP".

Residuals (a6b6c0f3, +16/-9 across 7 files). package.json and lockfile name fields (mike → pip, mike-backend → pip-backend). localStorage key migration: the hook now reads from pip.selectedModel, falls back once to mike.selectedModel (migrating the value and removing the old key), then returns null - a clean one-time migration without breaking existing sessions. mikeoss.com placeholder URL in the support page → example.com.

Admin branding (8276afb9, migration 0021, +1107/-46 across 17 files). Adds brand_primary_hex, brand_secondary_hex, and brand_neutral_hex columns to org_settings (defaulting to Piper Alderman's brand guide values: #A93226, #36475C, #6E6E6E). Five logo variant columns: logo_full_colour_path, logo_full_white_path, logo_mark_path, logo_dark_mono_path, logo_favicon_path. Logo files are stored as plain files under ${DATA_ROOT}/branding - not through the AES-encrypted document storage driver, since logos are marketing material rather than client documents. Filenames are content-hashed so uploading a replacement invalidates browser caches automatically. Accepted MIME types: PNG, SVG, WebP, JPEG for general variants; PNG, SVG, ICO for the favicon.

So what The rename itself is only relevant if you're doing your own brand sweep. The worked example is useful as a checklist of where product names hide: DnD MIME strings, DOM event names, localStorage keys, tracked-change author fields, system prompts, and package.json `name` - all surface alongside the obvious type renames. The localStorage one-time migration trick (read old key, write new key, remove old key, done) is worth copying. The admin branding system is the more interesting port candidate: server-side colour tokens and content-hashed logo files give operators firm customisation without a code deploy.

SHA	Subject	Author	Date
`74e803c2`	Browser-visible branding pass: Mike -> PIP	Claude	2026-05-15	↗ GitHub
commit body Page title, OG metadata, twitter card, error-page title, support form copy, models page copy, workflows "system" badge, tabular and workflow column-prompt placeholders, project people modal docblock, and the site logo wordmark all swap "Mike" for "PIP". metadataBase and the site-logo landing href now read NEXT_PUBLIC_API_BASE_URL instead of hard-coding the upstream mikeoss.com domain. Internal type names (MikeProject, MikeChat, etc.), the mikeApi.ts module and the MikeIcon component intentionally stay - those are part of a follow-up rename so the diffs stay reviewable.
`7d24a909`	Rename Mike* identifiers to Pip*	Claude	2026-05-15	↗ GitHub
commit body Bulk rename of upstream-shaped identifiers so the codebase reads as PIP end-to-end: MikeProject, MikeChat, MikeChatDetailOut, MikeCitationAnnotation, MikeDocument, MikeDocumentVersion, MikeEditAnnotation, MikeFolder, MikeMessage, MikeWorkflow, MikeIcon, MikeLayout -> Pip* mikeApi.ts -> pipApi.ts, mike-icon.tsx -> pip-icon.tsx application/mike-doc, application/mike-folder DnD MIME-likes -> pip-* mike:close-row-actions event -> pip:close-row-actions Removes the long-dead `mike` boolean prop on PipIcon and its three callsites. Backend defaults: chatTools system prompt is now PIP-branded and AU English-tuned (AGLC4 citations, metric, DD/MM/YYYY, no fabrication, not-legal-advice reminder). Org admins can still override via /admin/org-settings. Tracked-change author and change-id prefix flip from "Mike" to "PIP" so docx revisions surface the right name.
`a6b6c0f3`	Clean up residual "Mike" references missed by Phase 11	Claude	2026-05-16	↗ GitHub
commit body - Rename package.json + lockfile names (mike -> pip, mike-backend -> pip-backend) in both apps. - Update shared/types.ts header comment. - Migrate localStorage key mike.selectedModel -> pip.selectedModel with a one-time legacy read so existing users keep their model selection. - Replace mikeoss.com placeholder URL on the support page with a neutral example.com value.
`8276afb9`	Admin branding: colour tokens, five logo variants, runtime favicon	Claude	2026-05-16	↗ GitHub
commit body Adds an admin-managed branding surface so the firm's brand colours and logos can be set from the UI without touching code. Schema (migration 0021): - org_settings.brand_primary_hex default #A93226 (brand red) - org_settings.brand_secondary_hex default #36475C (dark navy) - org_settings.brand_neutral_hex default #6E6E6E (nav text grey) - org_settings.logo__path columns for five variants: full_colour, full_white, mark, dark_mono, favicon Logos live as plain files under ${DATA_ROOT}/branding (mounted to /data/branding in the backend container). Filenames are content-hashed so cache busting is automatic. PNG, SVG, WebP, JPEG accepted for normal variants; .ico, PNG, or SVG for the favicon. 2 MB cap. Backend: - New lib/branding.ts (load, write, read, delete, mime/hex validation). - New /branding (public) endpoint pair: GET /branding returns the colour tokens + logo URLs; GET /branding/logo/:filename streams bytes. No auth required since logos are non-sensitive and the login splash needs them. - New /admin/branding endpoints: GET, PATCH (colours), POST /admin/branding/logo/:variant (multipart upload), DELETE /admin/branding/logo/:variant. - singleFileUpload helper now takes a maxBytes argument so the branding route can cap at 2 MB without affecting document upload limits. Frontend: - New BrandingProvider context loads /branding once on app boot, injects CSS variables (--pip-primary, --pip-secondary, --pip-neutral), and swaps <link rel="icon"> when a favicon variant is uploaded. - SiteLogo prefers the uploaded full_colour variant, falls back to the built-in PipIcon + wordmark. - AppSidebar header shows the mark variant when uploaded; otherwise the wordmark renders in the brand-red colour. - New /admin/branding page: hex colour pickers, drag/upload zones per logo variant with preview and remove buttons. Infra: - docker-compose mounts ${DATA_ROOT}/branding to /data/branding, sets BRANDING_LOCAL_PATH. - install.sh provisions the branding dir at uid 10001. - Caddy template adds /branding /branding/ to @backend_api.
