File Modifications Summary

cortx-designer Frontend

Location: cortx-designer/frontend Files Modified: None (already fully branded) Files Added: None Status: ✅ Already complete with all Sinergy branding

InvestmAit Frontend

Location: corpsuite/modules/investmait/frontend Files Modified:

  • ✅ tailwind.config.js - Added Sinergy brand colors, fonts, dark mode support
  • ✅ styles/globals.css - Added font imports, CSS custom properties, accessibility features

Files Added:

  • ✅ public/SS-Icon-Transparent.png - Sinergy logo icon

FedSuite Frontend

Location: fedsuite/frontend Files Modified:

  • ✅ tailwind.config.js - Added Sinergy brand colors, fonts, dark mode support, Federal Navy emphasis
  • ✅ src/app/globals.css - Added font imports, CSS custom properties, federal-specific classes (.federal-badge, .compliance-indicator, .federal-form-field)

Files Added:

  • ✅ public/SS-Icon-Transparent.png - Sinergy logo icon

Greenlight UI Discovery Findings

Location Found: /Users/michael/Development/greenlight/ui

Contents:

  • /assets - Static assets (images, icons)
  • /components - React components
  • /docs - Component documentation
  • /layouts - Layout components
  • /styles - CSS/styling files

Key Finding: ⚠ī¸ Not a complete Next.js application

  • No package.json found
  • Appears to be a component library or shared UI assets
  • No Next.js framework structure (no pages/, app/, etc.)

Recommendation: Greenlight UI will require modernization to Next.js 14+ before integration. This is planned for Phase 2 (Weeks 3-5) and will include:

  1. Create new Next.js 14 application structure
  2. Migrate React components from /ui folder
  3. Apply Sinergy branding (same process as InvestmAit/FedSuite)
  4. Integrate with Greenlight microservices (ingest-sam, ingest-eva, scoring, notify, etc.)
  5. Add opportunity triage dashboard
  6. Integrate with Gateway + Identity services

Known Issues & Blockers

1. Greenlight UI Modernization Required ⚠ī¸

Issue: Greenlight UI is a component library, not a full Next.js app Impact: Cannot be migrated as-is; requires modernization Resolution: Planned for Phase 2 (Week 4) - build new Next.js 14 app and migrate components Effort: ~8-12 hours

2. Dependencies Not Installed ⚠ī¸

Issue: @radix-ui/*, @tailwindcss/forms, recharts not installed in InvestmAit/FedSuite Impact: Some components may not render correctly until installed Resolution: Run npm install commands listed in "Next Steps" Effort: ~5 minutes per frontend

3. Full Sinergy Logo Missing ℹī¸

Issue: Only icon logo (SS-Icon-Transparent.png) present, full logo (SS_Logo_Transparent.png) not found Impact: Minor - icon works for favicons and small spaces, but full logo needed for navigation bars Resolution: Obtain from brand assets or copy from cortx-designer if available Effort: ~1 minute once asset located

4. PropVerify Location Unknown ℹī¸

Issue: PropVerify frontend location not yet confirmed Impact: Blocks PropVerify integration (Phase 2) Resolution: Search in /cortx-hashtrack repo or ask stakeholder Effort: ~10 minutes discovery
