Yashas 602b570064 fix(brand): the logo, the typeface and the palette are HDFC's actual ones

The console was wearing an approximation of the bank. Everything here was
read off HDFC Bank's own production assets instead.

The mark was inside out. It had been drawn as a blue square with a red
square inset; HDFC's is the reverse — a red ground, a white channel cross
splitting it into four corner blocks, and a small blue square at the
centre. Every coordinate now comes verbatim from the SVG the bank serves
in its own site header, including the "HDFC BANK" wordmark outlines, so
the lockup is the bank's rather than a redrawing of it. The favicon in
index.html carried the same inversion and is fixed with the same numbers.

Open Sans replaces the Segoe UI stack. hdfcbank.com preloads OpenSans
Regular / SemiBold / Bold / ExtraBold and sets its whole site in it. It is
self-hosted through @fontsource-variable/open-sans rather than pulled from
a CDN, for the reason the API URL is read at runtime: this build gets
promoted between environments and dropped behind bank proxies, and a font
that sometimes fails to arrive is a product that sometimes looks like
someone else's.

The header stops being a navy band. HDFC puts the full lockup on a light
ground on every one of its own digital surfaces, and a navy header made
the real logo unusable — the lockup's own blue bar would have dissolved
into it. The blue now does its work as the rule under the header, the
active queue and the primary button, which is how the bank uses it. The
lockup's 3px white keyline is the bank's own, so it sits correctly on the
panel in dark mode too and no reversed variant is needed.

Palette, grounded rather than invented: the page canvas is #F0F6FB, the
tint hdfcbank.com uses behind content; the good/ tokens sit on the hue of
the bank's #00B947 instead of a generic emerald, darkened to #00713D
because #00B947 is 2.6:1 on white and unreadable as a label. The two brand
hexes were already right and are unchanged.

Also closes three AA failures the palette claimed it did not have —
--color-faint in light, and --color-faint / --color-brand in dark, each
below 4.5:1 on --color-panel3. White on --color-signal (4.31:1) is left
alone knowingly: darkening HDFC red for the Decline button would have made
it a different red from the logo beside it.

HDFC Bank — Loan Desk

Custom operator console for the HDFC loan-origination demo. MSME and personal loan files: agents assemble the evidence, rules compute capacity, credit decides.

The workflow behind it is seeded from sm2/custom-apps/hdfc-loan-desk/ (org 83, app 524, workflow hdfc_wf_loan). Design doc: sm2/app-designs/loan-origination/design.html.

Run it

npm install
npm run dev          # http://localhost:5174
npm run build        # tsc -b && vite build  → dist/
npm run typecheck

.env carries the API host for local dev only:

VITE_ZINO_API_URL=https://dev.getzino.in

Logins (all password HdfcDemo@2026, org 83):

Email	Role	Can do
`priya.rm@hdfc.example`	RM, Business Banking	Capture, Upload Documents, Make Offer, Decline
`rahul.credit@hdfc.example`	Credit Manager (maker)	Credit Assessment, Approve / Decline Referred
`anita.approver@hdfc.example`	Credit Approver (checker)	Sanction — and nothing else
`vikram.ops@hdfc.example`	Disbursal Ops	Release Disbursal — and nothing else

How it talks to the platform

Everything goes through src/api/client.ts. Three routes matter:

POST /usr/login — auth. org_id must be a string; a number returns cannot unmarshal number into Go struct field LoginRequest.org_id.
POST /app/524/view/recordview — every queue is this one record view (hdfc-rv-applications) filtered server-side on current_state_name.
POST /app/524/view/form-screens then POST /app/524/activity — forms are read from the live activity schema and submitted straight back.

Forms are not defined in this repo

ActivityForm renders whatever /view/form-screens returns — labels, types, select options, which fields are mandatory. Add a field to an activity in Studio, redeploy, and it appears here with no frontend change. That is deliberate: the workflow is the source of truth, and a hardcoded form would quietly diverge from it.

The runtime-config contract

VITE_ZINO_API_URL is read at runtime from a config.js the server writes when it places the build — never compiled in. One artifact is promoted between environments unchanged, so a build-time URL would point every environment at whichever backend happened to build it. requireConfigValue throws if it is missing, so a production build with no config.js fails loudly rather than calling the wrong backend.

vite.config.ts uses base: './' and the router takes its basename from the <base href> the server writes, so one build serves any mount path. Do not reintroduce a build-time base.

What the screens are for

Queues (src/screens/PipelineScreen.tsx) — the sidebar is the pipeline, in the order a file moves. The variance figure is surfaced in the list, not just on the file, so a credit manager scanning the queue can see which referrals are corroboration questions before opening any of them.

The file (src/screens/ApplicationScreen.tsx) — evidence panel first, above the offer and the sanction, because whoever reads the screen top to bottom should read the decision in the order it was made.

The evidence panel (src/components/EvidencePanel.tsx) is the point of the whole app. It is built around three claims:

Three independent income sources, side by side, with the widest pair marked. A single figure labelled "variance 44.3%" is a number nobody can check; three figures with the spread drawn is an argument a person can accept or reject on sight.
Every ratio shown against the threshold it was tested on. "1.34" means nothing; "1.34 against a floor of 1.25" is a finding.
A visible line between what a rule computed and what a model wrote. Rules are never violet; the agent's narrative always is. Nobody should have to be told which is which.

Brand

Everything below was read off HDFC Bank's own production assets rather than recalled or approximated. Check the source before changing any of it.

What	Value	Where it came from
Logo	`src/components/HdfcLogo.tsx`	Coordinates lifted verbatim from `s7ap1.scene7.com/is/content/hdfcbankPWS/hdfc-bank-logo` — the SVG the bank serves in its own site header
Blue	`#004C8F`	The lockup's bar fill
Red	`#ED232A`	The mark's ground
Typeface	Open Sans	hdfcbank.com preloads OpenSans Regular / SemiBold / Bold / ExtraBold and sets its whole site in it. Self-hosted through `@fontsource-variable/open-sans`, never a CDN
Page tint	`#F0F6FB`	The tint behind content on hdfcbank.com
Success green	hue of `#00B947`	The bank's green, darkened to `#00713D` — `#00B947` itself is 2.6:1 on white and unreadable as a label
Tagline	"We understand your world"	Shown once, on the sign-in card

The mark is a RED square with a BLUE centre, split by a white channel cross — not a blue square with a red inset. It was drawn inside out here originally, in the component and in the favicon in index.html. Those two carry the same coordinates; change one and you must change the other.

The lockup carries the bank's own 3px white keyline, which is what lets it sit on a coloured ground — so there is no reversed variant, and none is needed. It is also why the header is a light surface: HDFC puts the full lockup on a light ground on every one of its own digital surfaces, and the navy header this app used to have would have dissolved the lockup's own blue bar into itself. The bank's blue does its work as the rule under the header, the active queue and the primary button.

Theming

One attribute — data-theme on <html> — swaps the whole console. Every colour is a CSS custom property redefined under :root[data-theme='dark'] in src/styles.css. There is no second stylesheet and no dark: prefix anywhere.

Never put a literal colour in a component. A hex or a raw Tailwind shade is invisible to the toggle and will be wrong in one of the two themes. HdfcLogo.tsx is the single exception, and it earns it: a logo's colours are not design decisions, so the mark stays #ED232A and #004C8F in every theme.

Red is never decoration — it marks the logo and a decline, nothing else. So when red appears in a queue it means something. The referred queue's amber is the only amber in the pipeline, for the same reason: it should read as "needs you" without reading as an error. A referred file is not a bad file.

Every text colour clears WCAG AA on each surface it actually lands on, in both themes. There is one knowing exception: white on --color-signal is 4.31:1 — the Decline button. Darkening HDFC red to clear AA would have made the one red button on the screen a different red from the logo beside it.

Known gaps

OCR document uploads are not wired. The seven ocr fields on Upload Documents render as a visible pending row rather than a control that pretends to work; the extracted figures are entered directly. The evidence factory that generates the documents is the next piece of work.
No AI employees yet. Credit Assessment is currently performed by a human (the Credit Manager holds the role alongside the agent). Wiring the agent changes who submits the activity, not the workflow — the state machine, the gate and this console are unchanged by it.
The advisory offer only renders once the advisor has run; the ai_suggested_* columns are deliberately separate from offered_* so a suggestion can never be mistaken for a commitment.
Four-eyes is role separation, not same-user detection: it holds because no user is granted both credit_manager and credit_approver.
