   sv-shared.css — Securevision Master Stylesheet

   VERSION HISTORY
   -------------------------------------------------------
   v1.0  April 1 2026   Initial build — core styles, nav,
                         hero, solutions, systems, brands,
                         insights, portfolio base.

   v1.1  April 2026     Portfolio additions block added:
                         section-spacing, mt-16, mt-24,
                         snapshot-tech-col/card,
                         snapshot-systems-col/card,
                         portfolio-tech-stack/item,
                         tech-brand-name/desc,
                         portfolio-layer-card,
                         related-project-badge variants.

   v1.2  April 2026     Discovery Path cards redesigned:
                         portfolio-link-stack changed to
                         4-col responsive grid (desktop),
                         2-col (tablet), 1-col (mobile).
                         portfolio-link-card-body added.
                         Duplicate definitions removed.

   v1.3  April 2026     Comparison table header fixed:
                         th background dark-blue, white
                         text. th.feature-col forced white
                         to override specificity clash.

   v1.4  April 2026     Result cards standardised:
                         portfolio-result-card green top
                         border, left-aligned.
                         portfolio-result-title added —
                         green, Montserrat 700, bottom
                         padding and divider.
                         portfolio-result-text added.

   v1.5  April 2026     Related project card alignment:
                         body left-aligned, badge/title/
                         link centred explicitly.
                         related-project-link margin-top
                         auto + padding-top 20px.
                         related-project-title !important
                         centre override.

   v1.6  April 2026     Section header fix:
                         .section-header.text-center p
                         gets explicit text-align: center.
                         .section-header.text-center
                         p.text-left exception added so
                         Discovery Path and Related
                         Projects intro paragraphs align
                         left correctly.

   v1.7  April 2026     CTA button group margin-top: 40px
                         added for spacing between body
                         text and CTA buttons.
                         Hero overlay darkened:
                         0.82/0.72/0.82 opacity.
                         no-bottom-spacing utility added.

   v1.9  April 2026     Global .container changed from 1200px
                         to 1080px site-wide. Better reading width
                         for 2026 screens. Portfolio-specific
                         container override removed — redundant.
                         portfolio-section-narrow class retained
                         in CSS but no longer needed on pages.

   v1.8  April 2026     portfolio-section-narrow set to
                         max-width: 100% — removes narrow
                         viewport from portfolio prose
                         sections (Transformation, Decision
                         Point, Our Approach, Solution).
                         Full width now consistent across
                         all portfolio sections.
                         portfolio-insight redesigned as
                         quiet editorial pullquote: no
                         filled background, no left border,
                         centred at 760px, smaller type,
                         decorative quote mark via ::before.
                         Duplicate definitions removed.

   v2.0  April 2026     MAJOR: sv-forms.css and sv-guides.css merged
                         into sv-shared. Both separate files deprecated.
                         Single stylesheet for entire site.

                         From sv-forms.css:
                           Sections 29-32: Form system
                           (proposal-form, form-group, form-section,
                           checkbox-group, interaction-toggle,
                           scheduling slots, submit-wrap).
                           Fixed: --accent-green → --primary-blue
                           on form section decorative border.

                         From sv-guides.css:
                           Section 33: Long-form content layout
                           (blog-row, blog-row-wrap, blog-img-wrap,
                           blog-table, stat-grid, stat-card,
                           component-card, case-study-card,
                           recommendation-box, layout-with-sidebar,
                           sticky-toc, author-bio-strip).
                           Fixed: --primary-access → --page-accent
                           throughout. Global main p/li font-size
                           overrides scoped to .guide-page wrapper.
                           Conflicting .faq-grid/.faq-item removed —
                           Section 28 (sv-shared) is canonical.
                           .main-nav.scrolled override removed —
                           handled by per-page --page-accent.

                         Section 34: Checklist UI components added.
                           (.cl-layout, .cl-section, .cl-question,
                           .cl-score-bar, .cl-score-band,
                           .cl-final-score, .cl-cta-strip)

   v2.1  May 2026       Equipment Deployed spec-list rule added:
                         .portfolio-system-card .spec-list — smaller
                         font (0.9rem), lighter colour (var(--text-light)),
                         18px left padding, 8px top margin, 4px item gap.
                         Standardises a pattern previously achieved with
                         inline styles on each <ul>. Scoped under
                         portfolio-system-card so the .spec-list class
                         cannot accidentally restyle other <ul> elements.
                         Used in portfolio Equipment Deployed sections
                         alongside <p><strong>Sub-category:</strong>
                         description</p> pattern for inline sub-headings.

   v2.2  May 2026       Systems page CSS extracted to systems.css.
                         Sections 35-36 removed (818 lines).
                         All 7 systems pages now load systems.css
                         alongside sv-shared.css.

   v2.3  May 2026       Solutions page CSS extracted to solutions.css.
                         Removed from this file (892 lines total):
                         - step-row / step-item / step-num
                         - rel-card / rel-card-img / rel-card-footer
                         - Section 23: Solutions hub components
                           (featured-condo, badge-popular, grid-5,
                           simple-card, icon-row)
                         - Section 24: Solution detail components
                           (pillar-card, pricing-card, pillar-closing-note)
                         - Section 28: FAQ component (faq-grid, faq-list)
                         - proof-grid / proof-card (two duplicate blocks)
                         - Solution-specific responsive overrides
                         All solutions pages now load solutions.css
                         alongside sv-shared.css.
                         NOTE: rel-card / rel-card-img retained in
                         sv-shared — used on homepage and portfolio
                         pages, not solutions-only.

   v2.4  May 2026       Portfolio CSS extracted to sv-portfolio.css.
                         Sections 27 and 37 removed (~1,493 lines).

                         Retained in sv-shared: .hidden (utility),
                         .layout-with-sidebar, .sticky-toc (also
                         used by guides/resources pages).

   v2.6  May 2026       Systems CSS partially cleaned from sv-shared.
                         Sections 35 + 36 removed (~817 lines).
