 - **ApplyThemeSkin guard:** Updated `BaseStyledComponent.ApplyThemeSkin` to check both `Font.Name` AND `Font.Names` are empty before applying theme font. Prevents theme from overriding an explicitly set `Names` value.
 - **Root cause:** `ApplyThemeSkin` set `Font.Name` but `HasStyleExtensions.ToStyle()` reads `Font.Names` for `font-family`. Without auto-sync, theme fonts were silently lost.
 - **Lesson:** When Web Forms has paired/synced properties (Name↔Names, Value↔SelectedValue, etc.), our Blazor equivalents must replicate the sync behavior or the rendering pipeline breaks at property boundaries.

+### CI/CD Unified Release Process (2026-03-02)
+
+- **Unified release.yml:** Created `.github/workflows/release.yml` triggered on `release: published`. Single workflow coordinates all release artifacts: NuGet publish, Docker build+push to GHCR, docs deploy to GitHub Pages, demo builds with release attachment. All jobs extract version from `github.event.release.tag_name` stripping the `v` prefix, ensuring every artifact gets the same version.
+- **Version extraction pattern:** Use `${{ github.event.release.tag_name }}` (not `${{ github.ref_name }}`) for release events. Strip `v` prefix via bash `${VERSION#v}` and write to `$GITHUB_ENV` for use across steps.
+- **NuGet version override:** Pass both `-p:PackageVersion=$VERSION` and `-p:Version=$VERSION` to `dotnet pack` and `dotnet build` respectively, overriding NBGV-computed versions with the exact release tag version.
+- **Secret-gating pattern:** Use `env: NUGET_API_KEY: ${{ secrets.NUGET_API_KEY }}` at step level, then `if: env.NUGET_API_KEY != ''` — this is the GitHub Actions idiom for conditional steps based on secret availability.
+- **gh CLI in workflows:** Set `GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}` as env var for `gh release upload` commands.
+- **Docker image tags lowercase:** Registry/image path must be lowercase: `ghcr.io/fritzandfriends/blazorwebformscomponents/serversidesamples`.
+- **deploy-server-side.yml refactored:** Removed `push: branches: [main]` trigger and path filters. Now `workflow_dispatch` only — emergency manual escape hatch.
+- **nuget.yml refactored:** Removed `push: tags: [v*]` trigger. Now `workflow_dispatch` with version input — emergency manual NuGet republish.
+- **docs.yml fix:** Replaced deprecated `echo ::set-output name=release::${RELEASE}` with `echo "release=${RELEASE}" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"`. Kept push-to-main deploy for doc-only changes between releases.
+- **demo.yml versioned artifacts:** Added NBGV version computation step. Artifact names now include version: `demo-server-side-${{ steps.nbgv.outputs.version }}`.
+- **version.json:** Changed from `"version": "0.17"` (2-segment) to `"version": "0.17.0"` (3-segment SemVer). NBGV now computes clean 3-segment versions matching our tag format.
+- **NBGV key lesson:** NBGV ignores git tags entirely — it reads `version.json` for major.minor and computes patch from git height. Tags are informational; `version.json` must be kept in sync. For releases, override NBGV output with explicit `-p:Version=` from the tag.
+- **Workflow dependency order:** release.yml uses `needs:` to enforce: build-and-test → [publish-nuget, deploy-docker, deploy-docs, build-demos] (fan-out after gate job).
+- **Lesson:** GitHub Actions `$GITHUB_OUTPUT` replaced `::set-output` (deprecated Oct 2022). Always use `echo "key=value" >> "$GITHUB_OUTPUT"` for step outputs.

+### Summary: Full Skins & Themes Roadmap (#369) (2026-02-28)
+
+**By:** Forge
+**What:** Created prioritized 3-wave roadmap for full theming implementation, 15 work items total.
+
+**Architecture decisions:**
+- Sub-component styles use `Dictionary<string, TableItemStyle>` on `ControlSkin`, keyed by style name ("HeaderStyle", "RowStyle", etc.)
+- ThemeMode enum (`StyleSheetTheme` vs `Theme`) controls priority — StyleSheetTheme = defaults, Theme = overrides
+- Container-level EnableTheming propagation via dedicated cascading bool, not parent chain walking (O(1) vs O(n))
+- Runtime theme switching requires new ThemeConfiguration instance (CascadingValue reference equality)
+- .skin file parser recommended as build-time source generator (works in all Blazor hosting models)
+- JSON theme format is complementary to C# config, not a replacement
+
+**Key findings from code audit:**
+- DataBound inheritance chain is correct: DataBoundComponent<T> → BaseDataBoundComponent → BaseStyledComponent — all data controls get top-level theming automatically
+- 6 style container interfaces already exist (IGridViewStyleContainer, IDetailsViewStyleContainer, IFormViewStyleContainer, ICalendarStyleContainer, IDataGridStyleContainer, IDataListStyleContainer) with ~41 total sub-style slots
+- UiStyle<T> / UiTableItemStyle classes provide sub-component style rendering infrastructure
+- ControlSkin is flat (no sub-styles) — extending it is the biggest single work item
+
+**File paths:**
+- Roadmap: `.ai-team/decisions/inbox/forge-themes-full-roadmap.md`
+- Existing theming code: `src/BlazorWebFormsComponents/Theming/` (ThemeConfiguration.cs, ControlSkin.cs, ThemeProvider.razor)
+- Style container interfaces: `src/BlazorWebFormsComponents/Interfaces/I*StyleContainer.cs`
+- Base class wiring: `src/BlazorWebFormsComponents/BaseStyledComponent.cs` (OnParametersSet + ApplySkin)

+
+### Summary: Build/Version/Release Process Audit (2026-03-02)
+
+**By:** Forge
+**What:** Full audit of 7 CI/CD workflows, NBGV version management, and release coordination. Audit saved to `.ai-team/decisions/inbox/forge-version-release-audit.md`.
+
+**Critical findings:**
+1. `version.json` on main says `0.15` but latest tag is `v0.16` — NBGV computes `0.15.X`, not `0.16.0`. Every artifact built from main has wrong version prefix.
+2. NuGet (tag-triggered), Docker (main-push-triggered), docs (main-push or tag), and demos (main-push) all fire independently with no version coordination.
+3. `docs.yml` uses deprecated `::set-output` and has a release-detection regex that never matches this project's 2-segment tags (`v0.16`). Docs only deploy on main push, never on tag.
+4. No GitHub Release automation — releases are created manually, not all tags have releases.
+5. Docker image version comes from `nbgv get-version` on runner which reads stale `version.json`, not the tag.
+
+**Recommendation:**
+- Create unified `release.yml` triggered by GitHub Release `published` event. One trigger → NuGet + Docker + docs + demos, all with same version from tag.
+- Keep NBGV but use it correctly: version.json drives dev/CI versions, release workflow overrides with `-p:Version=${TAG}` for exact release version.
+- Standardize on 3-segment SemVer tags (`v0.17.0`).
+- Retire independent deployment triggers (nuget.yml tag trigger, deploy-server-side.yml main-push trigger).
+- Automate post-release version bump via PR to dev.
+- Fix docs.yml deprecated syntax and broken regex immediately.
+
+**Key infrastructure details learned:**
+- NBGV 3.9.50 in `Directory.Build.props`, applied to all projects
+- NuGet PackageId: `Fritz.BlazorWebFormsComponents`
+- Docker image: `ghcr.io/fritzandfriends/blazorwebformscomponents/serversidesamples`
+- Dockerfile strips NBGV via `sed`, accepts `VERSION` build-arg, passes `-p:Version=$VERSION`
+- `version.json` `publicReleaseRefSpec` includes main, master, v-branches, and v-tags
+- `version.json` `firstUnstableTag` is `preview` — dev branch gets `-preview.X` suffix
+- MkDocs uses Docker-based build (`docs/Dockerfile`), deploys to gh-pages branch via `crazy-max/ghaction-github-pages@v2.1.1`
+- `docs.yml` deploy guard: `github.event_name != 'pull_request' && (endsWith(github.ref, 'main') || steps.prepare.outputs.release == 'true')`
