+** DONE v0.8.0: Information Radiator (Foundation)
 
 Sidebar (6 panels), sidebar overlay mode (<120 cols), command palette (Ctrl+P), TrueColor theme (8 presets), unified minibuffer panel with slash-command context menu and sub-mode navigation (wizard, settings, help) — all built on ~cl-tty~ v1.1.0.
 
 The croatoan TUI is replaced entirely. cl-tty provides the widget set (box, text, scrollbox, select, markdown, dialog), keybinding system, and theme engine. Passepartout's job is wiring — cl-tty components call the daemon's TCP API and render its response structures.

-Replace ad-hoc overlay windows with cl-tty's ~Dialog~ stack. Typing =/= auto-opens a ~select-dialog~ with ~25 slash commands (filtered in real time). Selecting =/wizard= transitions to a ~prompt-dialog~ in the same panel — cl-tty's ~*dialog-stack*~ handles push/pop, Esc dismisses. Future sub-modes (=/settings=, =/help=) slot in as additional dialog types.
-
-- Define ~*slash-commands*~ — the same data structure, now driving cl-tty's ~Select~ options
-- Wire ~select-dialog~ on-Enter to push the next dialog type (wizard, settings, help)
-- Implement ~wizard-dialog~ subclass — validates UUID, writes ~/.passepartout/config.lisp~
-- Daisy-chain dialog state: wizard enters UUID → settings panel controls hotkeys/theme → help panel shows slash command reference
