+### 🔴 GOTCHA #9: Hiding Inputs from Property Panel Requires Custom editorType (Jan 2026)
+
+**THE BUG:**
+
+```javascript
+// ❌ WRONG - hidden: true doesn't work
+generatedCode: {
+  type: 'string',
+  hidden: true,  // ☠️ IGNORED - still renders in property panel
+  set: function(value) { ... }
+}
+
+// ❌ WRONG - allowEditOnly doesn't hide
+generatedCode: {
+  type: {
+    name: 'string',
+    allowEditOnly: true  // ☠️ Still renders (just prevents connections)
+  },
+  set: function(value) { ... }
+}
+```
+
+**WHY IT BREAKS:**
+
+- The property panel's `viewClassForPort()` in `Ports.ts` determines what renders
+- `hidden: true` is ignored because it's not checked in the port filtering logic
+- `allowEditOnly: true` only prevents port connections, doesn't hide from UI
+- If `viewClassForPort()` returns ANY class, the input WILL render
+
+**THE FIX:** Create a custom editorType that returns an invisible element:
+
+```javascript
+// Step 1: In runtime node definition (logic-builder.js)
+generatedCode: {
+  type: {
+    name: 'string',
+    allowEditOnly: true,
+    editorType: 'logic-builder-hidden'  // Custom type
+  },
+  displayName: 'Generated Code',
+  set: function(value) {
+    this._internal.generatedCode = value;
+  }
+}
+
+// Step 2: Create hidden type (LogicBuilderHiddenType.ts)
+export class LogicBuilderHiddenType extends TypeView {
+  render() {
+    // Return invisible element - takes no space
+    this.el = $('<div style="display: none;"></div>');
+    return this.el;
+  }
+}
+
+// Step 3: Register in Ports.ts viewClassForPort()
+if (typeof type === 'object' && type.editorType === 'logic-builder-hidden') {
+  return LogicBuilderHiddenType;
+}
+```
+
+**ARCHITECTURE INSIGHT:**
+
+```
+┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Runtime Node Definition (logic-builder.js)                   │
+│ inputs: { generatedCode: { editorType: 'logic-builder-hidden' } } │
+└────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────────────┘
+                             │
+                             ▼
+┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Ports.ts viewClassForPort()                                  │
+│ if (type.editorType === 'logic-builder-hidden')              │
+│   return LogicBuilderHiddenType;  // Renders nothing         │
+└────────────────────────────┬─────────────────────────────────┘
+                             │
+                             ▼
+┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
+│ Property Panel renders <div style="display: none;"></div>   │
+│ User sees nothing - input is effectively hidden              │
+└──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
+```
+
+**CRITICAL:** You MUST:
+
+1. Define the input in the runtime node (so runtime receives the value via setter)
+2. Create a custom TypeView that renders an invisible element
+3. Register the editorType check in Ports.ts BEFORE other type checks
+
+**RULE:** To hide an input from the property panel while still storing/persisting the value, create a custom `editorType` with a TypeView class that renders `display: none`.

+## Investigation Findings (January 16, 2026)
+
+### What I Checked
+
+1. **`LogicBuilder.AllTabsClosed` handler** - Just shows the canvas, NOT deleting nodes ✅
+2. **`CanvasTabsContext.closeTab()`** - Only removes tab from state, doesn't touch nodes ✅
+3. **Event propagation** - Tab close button uses `e.stopPropagation()` ✅
+
+### Most Likely Culprits
+
+Based on the code review, the most likely causes are:
+
+#### 1. Keyboard Focus + Delete Key
+
+When the Blockly tab closes, focus may return to the canvas with the node still selected. If Delete/Backspace is pressed (or held down from Blockly editing), it could trigger node deletion.
+
+**Test:** After closing Blockly tab, check if the node is still selected. Try pressing Delete immediately after closing.
+
+#### 2. `clearDeleteModeTimer` in nodegrapheditor.ts (line 185)
+
+There's a timer for "delete mode" in the node graph editor. This could be related to delayed deletion behavior.
+
+#### 3. Race Condition with Canvas Visibility
+
+When `LogicBuilder.AllTabsClosed` triggers `setCanvasVisibility(true)`, the canvas re-renders. If the node was selected before opening Blockly, and some keyboard event fires during the transition, it could trigger deletion.
+
+### Recommended Debug Steps
+
+1. Add console logging to the Delete key handler to see when it fires
+2. Log node selection state when closing Blockly tab
+3. Log any pending timers (clearDeleteModeTimer)
+4. Check if node exists BEFORE and AFTER `LogicBuilder.AllTabsClosed` event
+
+### Potential Quick Fix
+
+Add a guard in the delete handler to ignore deletion when a Blockly tab was just closed:
+
+```typescript
+// In delete handler
+if (Date.now() - lastBlocklyTabCloseTime < 100) {
+  console.warn('[NodeGraphEditor] Ignoring delete during Blockly tab close transition');
+  return;
+}
+```

+# BUG-6: App Component Not Clickable in Component Menu
+
+**Priority:** P0 - Blocks basic workflow  
+**Status:** 🔴 Research completed - Ready to implement  
+**Reported:** January 16, 2026
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+Can't click on the 'App' component (or any component-folder) in the left component menu to view its node canvas. The App component is being treated like a folder - clicking it only expands/collapses it but doesn't open the component's node canvas.
+
+---
+
+## Root Cause Found
+
+In `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/ComponentsPanelNew/hooks/useComponentsPanel.ts`:
+
+```typescript
+// Handle item click
+const handleItemClick = useCallback(
+  (node: TreeNode) => {
+    if (node.type === 'component') {
+      setSelectedId(node.data.name);
+      // Opens the component - works correctly
+      const component = node.data.component;
+      if (component) {
+        EventDispatcher.instance.notifyListeners('ComponentPanel.SwitchToComponent', {
+          component,
+          pushHistory: true
+        });
+      }
+    } else {
+      // ❌ BUG: This only toggles folder expand/collapse
+      // It NEVER opens component-folders!
+      setSelectedId(node.data.path);
+      toggleFolder(node.data.path);
+    }
+  },
+  [toggleFolder]
+);
+```
+
+The problem: When a component has nested children (like "App" with child components), it's rendered as a **folder** in the tree with `type: 'folder'`. Even though it's marked as `isComponentFolder: true` and has a `component` reference, clicking on it only toggles the folder - it never opens the component canvas.
+
+---
+
+## Expected Behavior
+
+1. Single-click on a component-folder should **open the component canvas**
+2. Expand/collapse should happen via the arrow icon OR could be a secondary behavior
+
+---
+
+## Solution Options
+
+### Option A: Open on Click, Toggle via Arrow (Recommended)
+
+Modify `handleItemClick` to open component-folders:
+
+```typescript
+const handleItemClick = useCallback(
+  (node: TreeNode) => {
+    if (node.type === 'component') {
+      // Regular component - open it
+      setSelectedId(node.data.name);
+      const component = node.data.component;
+      if (component) {
+        EventDispatcher.instance.notifyListeners('ComponentPanel.SwitchToComponent', {
+          component,
+          pushHistory: true
+        });
+      }
+    } else {
+      // It's a folder
+      setSelectedId(node.data.path);
+
+      // ✅ FIX: If it's a component-folder, open the component
+      if (node.data.isComponentFolder && node.data.component) {
+        EventDispatcher.instance.notifyListeners('ComponentPanel.SwitchToComponent', {
+          component: node.data.component,
+          pushHistory: true
+        });
+      }
+
+      // Still toggle the folder
+      toggleFolder(node.data.path);
+    }
+  },
+  [toggleFolder]
+);
+```
+
+### Option B: Separate Click Targets
+
+- Click on folder name = opens component
+- Click on arrow = toggles expand/collapse
+
+This requires UI changes to the FolderItem component.
+
+---
+
+## Files to Modify
+
+1. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/ComponentsPanelNew/hooks/useComponentsPanel.ts`
+
+   - Update `handleItemClick` to handle component-folders
+
+2. Optionally: `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/ComponentsPanelNew/components/FolderItem.tsx`
+   - If we want separate click targets for open vs expand
+
+---
+
+## Testing Plan
+
+- [ ] Create a project with App component that has child components
+- [ ] Click on 'App' in the component menu
+- [ ] Verify the App component's node canvas is displayed
+- [ ] Verify the folder still expands/collapses (either on same click or via arrow)
+- [ ] Test with nested component-folders (multiple levels deep)
+- [ ] Ensure regular folders (non-component) still only toggle expand
+
+---
+
+## Related
+
+- Component-folders are created when a component like `/App` has child components like `/App/Header`
+- The tree building logic correctly identifies these with `isComponentFolder: true`
+- The click handler just wasn't using this information

+# BUG-7: Broken Editor Icons (SVG Files Not Found)
+
+**Priority:** P0 - Visual breakage  
+**Status:** 🔴 Research completed - Ready to implement  
+**Reported:** January 16, 2026
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+Several editor icons are broken. The console shows errors like:
+
+```
+/assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg:1
+       Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
+/assets/icons/comment.svg:1
+       Failed to load resource: net::ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND
+```
+
+These icons appear as broken images in:
+
+- Node Picker category collapse/expand arrows
+- Comment action button in Node Picker
+- Possibly other places throughout the editor
+
+---
+
+## Root Cause Found
+
+The icons are referenced using **absolute paths** that don't resolve correctly in Electron:
+
+### NodePickerCategory.tsx (line 85):
+
+```typescript
+<img
+  className={classNames([css['Arrow'], ...])}
+  src="/assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg"  // ❌ Broken
+/>
+```
+
+### NodeLibrary.tsx (line 168):
+
+```typescript
+<NodePickerOtherItem
+  title="Comment"
+  description="Place a comment in the node graph"
+  onClick={(e) => {...}}
+  icon={<img src="/assets/icons/comment.svg" />}  // ❌ Broken
+/>
+```
+
+In Electron, absolute paths like `/assets/...` resolve to the file system root, not the app's asset directory. This is why the resources aren't found.
+
+---
+
+## Solution
+
+Replace absolute paths with:
+
+1. **Webpack imports** (preferred for type safety)
+2. **Relative paths** from the component location
+
+### Option A: Use Icon Components (Recommended)
+
+Use the existing `Icon` component from `@noodl-core-ui`:
+
+```typescript
+import { Icon, IconName, IconSize } from '@noodl-core-ui/components/common/Icon';
+
+// Instead of:
+<img src="/assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg" />
+
+// Use:
+<Icon icon={IconName.CaretRight} size={IconSize.Default} />
+```
+
+### Option B: Import SVG as Module
+
+```typescript
+// Import the SVG
+import rightArrowIcon from '../../../../assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg';
+
+// Use with img tag
+<img src={rightArrowIcon} />;
+```
+
+### Option C: Use Relative Path
+
+If the asset is in the public folder and properly configured:
+
+```typescript
+// Relative to the Electron app root
+<img src="./assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg" />
+```
+
+---
+
+## Files to Fix
+
+### 1. NodePickerCategory.tsx
+
+**Location:** `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/components/NodePickerCategory/NodePickerCategory.tsx`
+
+**Line 85:**
+
+```typescript
+// BEFORE:
+src="/assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg"
+
+// AFTER (Option A - preferred):
+import { Icon, IconName, IconSize } from '@noodl-core-ui/components/common/Icon';
+// Replace <img> with:
+<Icon icon={IconName.CaretRight} size={IconSize.Small} />
+```
+
+### 2. NodeLibrary.tsx
+
+**Location:** `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/tabs/NodeLibrary/NodeLibrary.tsx`
+
+**Line 168:**
+
+```typescript
+// BEFORE:
+icon={<img src="/assets/icons/comment.svg" />}
+
+// AFTER:
+import { Icon, IconName } from '@noodl-core-ui/components/common/Icon';
+// ...
+icon={<Icon icon={IconName.Comment} />}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Investigation: Find All Broken Icon Paths
+
+Run this to find all potentially broken icon references:
+
+```bash
+grep -rn '"/assets/icons' packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/
+grep -rn "'/assets/icons" packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/
+```
+
+Expected files to check:
+
+- NodePickerCategory.tsx
+- NodeLibrary.tsx
+- Any other legacy components using old icon patterns
+
+---
+
+## Alternative: Asset Path Configuration
+
+If many places use this pattern, consider configuring Webpack to resolve `/assets/` to the correct directory. But individual fixes are cleaner for now.
+
+---
+
+## Testing Plan
+
+- [ ] Open the Node Picker (double-click on canvas or press space)
+- [ ] Verify category expand/collapse arrows are visible
+- [ ] Verify Comment action icon is visible in "Other" section
+- [ ] Check browser console for any remaining asset errors
+- [ ] Test in both dev mode and production build
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- [ ] No "ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND" errors for icon assets in console
+- [ ] All Node Picker icons display correctly
+- [ ] Arrow icons animate correctly on expand/collapse
+- [ ] Comment icon visible and recognizable

+# BUG-8: Node Picker Search Not Auto-Expanding Categories
+
+**Priority:** P1 - UX regression  
+**Status:** 🔴 Research needed  
+**Reported:** January 16, 2026
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+When typing in the Node Picker search box:
+
+- ✅ Categories are correctly **filtered** to only show those containing matching nodes
+- ❌ Categories stay **collapsed** and must be manually opened to see results
+- **Expected:** Categories should auto-expand when search filter is active
+
+---
+
+## Previous Behavior (Working)
+
+1. Open Node Picker
+2. Start typing a node name (e.g., "button")
+3. Categories filter to only show matching results
+4. **Categories automatically expand** to show the matching nodes
+
+---
+
+## Current Behavior (Broken)
+
+1. Open Node Picker
+2. Start typing a node name
+3. Categories filter correctly
+4. **Categories stay collapsed** - user must click each category to see results
+
+---
+
+## Code Investigation
+
+### Key Files
+
+**NodeLibrary.tsx** uses these from hooks:
+
+```typescript
+const {
+  cursorState,
+  openAllCategories, // Function exists to expand all
+  closeAllCategories, // Function exists to collapse all
+  handleSearchUpdate,
+  focusSearch
+  // ...
+} = useKeyboardCursor(renderedNodes);
+```
+
+**Category collapse is controlled by:**
+
+```typescript
+// NodeLibrary.tsx line ~105
+isCollapsed={getIsCategoryCollapsed(cursorState, category.name)}
+```
+
+**Selector in NodePicker.selectors.ts:**
+
+```typescript
+export function getIsCategoryCollapsed(cursorState: ICursorState, categoryName: string) {
+  const category = cursorState?.allCategories.find((category) => category.name === categoryName);
+  return category ? category.isCollapsed : true; // Defaults to true (collapsed)
+}
+```
+
+### Where Auto-Expand Should Happen
+
+The `useSearchBar` hook is passed `openAllCategories`:
+
+```typescript
+// NodeLibrary.tsx line ~68
+const setSearchTerm = useSearchBar(
+  searchInput,
+  setRenderedNodes,
+  items,
+  cursorState.cursorContext,
+  openAllCategories, // ← This should be called when searching
+  closeAllCategories,
+  handleSearchUpdate
+);
+```
+
+---
+
+## Hypothesis
+
+The `useSearchBar` hook should be calling `openAllCategories()` when the search term is non-empty, but either:
+
+1. It's not calling it at all
+2. It's calling it but the state isn't being applied to categories
+3. The category `isCollapsed` state is being reset elsewhere
+
+---
+
+## Files to Investigate
+
+1. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/NodePicker.hooks.ts`
+
+   - Check `useSearchBar` implementation
+   - Verify `openAllCategories` is being called
+
+2. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/NodePicker.reducer.ts`
+
+   - Check how `isCollapsed` state is managed
+   - Verify the action for opening all categories works
+
+3. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/tabs/NodeLibrary/NodeLibrary.tsx`
+   - Verify the wiring is correct
+
+---
+
+## Potential Fixes
+
+### Option A: Call openAllCategories in useSearchBar
+
+Ensure `useSearchBar` calls `openAllCategories()` when search term becomes non-empty:
+
+```typescript
+// In useSearchBar hook
+useEffect(() => {
+  if (searchTerm.length > 0) {
+    openAllCategories(); // Expand when searching
+  } else {
+    closeAllCategories(); // Collapse when search cleared
+  }
+}, [searchTerm, openAllCategories, closeAllCategories]);
+```
+
+### Option B: Force Expand via Selector
+
+Modify the selector to return `false` (expanded) when there's an active search:
+
+```typescript
+export function getIsCategoryCollapsed(cursorState: ICursorState, categoryName: string) {
+  // If searching, always show expanded
+  if (cursorState.searchTerm && cursorState.searchTerm.length > 0) {
+    return false;
+  }
+
+  const category = cursorState?.allCategories.find((category) => category.name === categoryName);
+  return category ? category.isCollapsed : true;
+}
+```
+
+### Option C: Check for Stale State Issue
+
+The `openAllCategories` might be called but the state change isn't propagating because of a stale closure or missing dependency.
+
+---
+
+## Testing Plan
+
+- [ ] Open Node Picker
+- [ ] Start typing "button" in search
+- [ ] Verify categories containing "Button" auto-expand
+- [ ] Clear search
+- [ ] Verify categories collapse back
+- [ ] Test with keyboard navigation (arrow keys)
+- [ ] Test search → collapse/expand → search again flow
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- [ ] Categories auto-expand when search filter is active
+- [ ] User can immediately see matching nodes without manual clicks
+- [ ] Categories collapse when search is cleared
+- [ ] Keyboard navigation still works correctly
+- [ ] No performance regression with many categories
+
+---
+
+## Related
+
+- NodePicker uses React state management via `useReducer`
+- The `cursorState` contains category collapse states
+- This is likely a regression from previous changes to NodePicker

+# BUG-9: Properties Panel Not Responsive to Width Changes
+
+**Priority:** P1 - UX annoyance  
+**Status:** 🔴 Research needed  
+**Reported:** January 16, 2026
+
+---
+
+## Issue
+
+When resizing the left sidebar panel by dragging:
+
+- ✅ The left panel container correctly expands/shrinks
+- ❌ The properties panel content **stays fixed width** and doesn't expand to fill the available space
+- Result: Wasted whitespace when panel is widened
+
+---
+
+## Expected Behavior
+
+When the user widens the left panel by dragging:
+
+1. The entire side panel container expands
+2. The properties panel content **responsively expands** to use the new width
+3. Form fields, inputs, and content fill the available horizontal space
+
+---
+
+## Current Behavior
+
+1. User widens the left panel by dragging
+2. The container expands
+3. The properties panel content **stays at a fixed width**
+4. Large empty space appears on the right side of the panel
+
+---
+
+## Likely Causes
+
+### 1. Fixed Width on PropertyEditor Container
+
+The property editor or one of its parent containers likely has a fixed `width` value instead of responsive sizing:
+
+```scss
+// Problem pattern:
+.PropertyEditor {
+  width: 280px; // ❌ Fixed - won't expand
+}
+
+// Should be:
+.PropertyEditor {
+  width: 100%; // ✅ Fills available space
+  max-width: 400px; // Optional upper limit
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Missing Flex Properties
+
+Parent containers may be missing proper flex properties:
+
+```scss
+// Problem pattern:
+.Container {
+  display: flex;
+}
+
+// Should have:
+.Container {
+  display: flex;
+  flex: 1; // Grow to fill space
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Incorrect Content Sizing
+
+Inner content may have fixed widths that override responsive parent:
+
+```scss
+// Problem pattern:
+.PropertyPanelInput {
+  width: 200px; // ❌ Fixed
+}
+
+// Should be:
+.PropertyPanelInput {
+  width: 100%; // ✅ Fills parent
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Files to Investigate
+
+### Primary Files
+
+1. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/index.tsx`
+
+   - Main property editor container
+   - Check container width styling
+
+2. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/propertyeditor.scss`

+4. `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/property-panel/PropertyPanelInput/PropertyPanelInput.module.scss`
+
+   - Input field sizing
+   - May have fixed widths

+5. `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/property-panel/PropertyPanelRow/PropertyPanelRow.module.scss`
+   - Row container sizing
+
+### SideNavigation Container

+6. `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/app/SideNavigation/SideNavigation.module.scss`
+   - May constrain panel width
+
+---
+
+## Investigation Steps
+
+### 1. Inspect in DevTools
+
+Open DevTools (Cmd+Opt+I) and:
+
+1. Select the property panel container
+2. Manually adjust width in CSS
+3. Identify which element is constraining width
+
+### 2. Search for Fixed Widths
+
+```bash
+# Find fixed width declarations in property panel files
+grep -rn "width:" packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/
+grep -rn "width:" packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/property-panel/
+```
+
+### 3. Check Flex Properties
+
+```bash
+# Find flex-related styles
+grep -rn "flex:" packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/
+grep -rn "flex-grow\|flex-shrink" packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/
+```
+
+---
+
+## Potential Fixes
+
+### Option A: Make PropertyEditor Container Responsive
+
+```scss
+.PropertyEditor {
+  width: 100%;
+  min-width: 200px; // Minimum usable width
+  max-width: 100%; // Allow full expansion
+}
+```
+
+### Option B: Add Flex Growth
+
+```scss
+.PanelItem {
+  display: flex;
+  flex-direction: column;
+  flex: 1;
+  width: 100%;
+}
+
+.PropertyEditor {
+  flex: 1;
+  width: 100%;
+}
+```
+
+### Option C: Fix Input Field Widths
+
+If inputs have fixed widths:
+
+```scss
+.PropertyPanelInput {
+  width: 100%;
+  max-width: none; // Remove any max-width constraint
+}
+```
+
+---
+
+## Testing Plan
+
+- [ ] Open a project and select a node with properties
+- [ ] Drag the left panel border to widen it
+- [ ] Verify property panel content expands with the panel
+- [ ] Test with different panel widths (narrow, medium, wide)
+- [ ] Verify input fields remain usable at all sizes
+- [ ] Test with nested property groups (expanded sections)
+- [ ] Test on different node types (simple vs complex properties)
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+- [ ] Properties panel content fills available horizontal space
+- [ ] No large empty areas when panel is widened
+- [ ] Input fields expand proportionally
+- [ ] Layout remains usable at minimum width
+- [ ] No overflow/cutoff issues at narrow widths
+- [ ] Smooth resize without jank
+
+---
+
+## Related
+
+- This may affect other panels (Components, Cloud Functions, etc.)
+- Sidebar resize is handled by the SideNavigation component
+- Property panel renders into a slot provided by SidePanel

+## [2026-01-16 12:00] - BUG-6 COMPLETE: App Component Click Fix
+
+### Issue
+
+Clicking on the 'App' component (or any component-folder) in the left component menu only toggled expand/collapse - it didn't open the component's node canvas.
+
+### Root Cause
+
+In `useComponentsPanel.ts`, the `handleItemClick` function only handled components of `type: 'component'`. For folders, it only toggled the folder expansion. Component-folders (folders that are also components, like App with children) were not being opened.
+
+### Solution
+
+Added check for `isComponentFolder && node.data.component` in the folder branch of `handleItemClick`. When clicking a component-folder:
+
+1. Open the component canvas (via `ComponentPanel.SwitchToComponent` event)
+2. Toggle the folder expand/collapse
+
+### Files Modified
+
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/ComponentsPanelNew/hooks/useComponentsPanel.ts`
+  - Added component-folder opening logic in `handleItemClick` (~line 188-195)
+
+### Testing Checklist
+
+- [ ] Click on 'App' component (with children) → Opens App canvas AND toggles folder
+- [ ] Click on regular folder → Only toggles expand/collapse
+- [ ] Click on regular component → Opens component canvas
+- [ ] Component-folders at any nesting depth work correctly

+## [2026-01-16 12:15] - BUG-7 COMPLETE: Broken Editor Icons Fix
+
+### Issue
+
+Several Node Picker icons were broken due to absolute paths like `/assets/icons/...` not resolving in Electron. Console showed ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND errors for:
+
+- `/assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg` (category expand arrows)
+- `/assets/icons/comment.svg` (comment action icon)
+
+### Root Cause
+
+Absolute paths like `/assets/icons/...` resolve to the file system root in Electron, not the app's asset directory. The icons were using `<img src="/assets/...">` which doesn't work.
+
+### Solution
+
+Replaced `<img>` tags with the existing `Icon` component from `@noodl-core-ui`:
+
+**NodePickerCategory.tsx:**
+
+- Replaced `<img src="/assets/icons/editor/right_arrow_22.svg">`
+- With `<Icon icon={IconName.CaretRight} size={IconSize.Small} UNSAFE_className={...}>`
+- CSS animation classes still apply via UNSAFE_className
+
+**NodeLibrary.tsx:**
+
+- Replaced `<img src="/assets/icons/comment.svg">`
+- With `<Icon icon={IconName.Chat} size={IconSize.Default}>`
+
+### Files Modified
+
+1. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/components/NodePickerCategory/NodePickerCategory.tsx`
+
+   - Added import for Icon, IconName, IconSize
+   - Replaced img tag with Icon component
+
+2. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/tabs/NodeLibrary/NodeLibrary.tsx`
+   - Added import for Icon, IconName, IconSize
+   - Replaced img tag with Icon component (using Chat icon for comment)
+
+### Testing Checklist
+
+- [ ] Open Node Picker (double-click canvas or press space)
+- [ ] Category expand/collapse arrows visible
+- [ ] Arrow rotates smoothly on expand/collapse
+- [ ] "Comment" item in "Other" section has visible chat icon
+- [ ] No ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND errors in console

+## [2026-01-16 17:15] - BUG-2 & BUG-2.1 FINAL FIX: Hidden Property Panel Input
+
+### Issue
+
+The Logic Builder node showed unwanted "Generated code" label and Edit button in the property panel, cluttering the UI. Users only need to see:
+
+- "Edit Logic Blocks" button
+- "View Generated Code" button
+
+### Root Cause
+
+There's no built-in way to hide an input from the property panel while still storing its value. The `hidden: true` flag is ignored, and `allowEditOnly: true` only prevents connections.
+
+### Solution: Custom Hidden editorType
+
+**Created a new pattern for hiding inputs from property panel:**
+
+1. **New file: `LogicBuilderHiddenType.ts`**
+
+   - Extends TypeView
+   - Returns `<div style="display: none;"></div>` - invisible element
+   - Input value still stored via setter, just not visible
+
+2. **Updated `Ports.ts`**
+
+   - Added check for `editorType: 'logic-builder-hidden'`
+   - Returns LogicBuilderHiddenType before other type checks
+
+3. **Updated `logic-builder.js`**
+   - Changed `generatedCode` input to use `editorType: 'logic-builder-hidden'`
+   - Value still stored via setter, just hidden from UI
+
+### Files Modified
+
+1. **NEW:** `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/DataTypes/LogicBuilderHiddenType.ts`
+2. `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/DataTypes/Ports.ts`
+3. `packages/noodl-runtime/src/nodes/std-library/logic-builder.js`
+
+### Architecture Pattern
+
+```
+Runtime Node Definition
+  └─ inputs: { generatedCode: { editorType: 'logic-builder-hidden' } }
+        │
+        ▼
+Ports.ts viewClassForPort()
+  └─ if (type.editorType === 'logic-builder-hidden') return LogicBuilderHiddenType
+        │
+        ▼
+Property Panel renders <div style="display: none;"></div>
+  └─ User sees nothing - input effectively hidden
+```
+
+### Key Learning: GOTCHA #9 Added
+
+**Added to LEARNINGS-NODE-CREATION.md:**
+
+To hide an input from property panel while preserving value storage:
+
+1. Create custom TypeView that renders `display: none`
+2. Register the editorType in Ports.ts before other type checks
+3. Use the custom editorType in node definition
+
+### Testing Checklist
+
+- [x] Property panel shows ONLY "Edit Logic Blocks" and "View Generated Code" buttons
+- [x] No "Generated code" label visible
+- [x] No extra Edit button visible
+- [x] Generated code value still stored when Blockly workspace changes
+- [x] Node still works correctly at runtime

+## ✅ Completed Bugs
+
+### Bug 6: App Component Click (COMPLETE)
+
+**Date Completed**: 2026-01-16  
+**Status**: ✅ Working perfectly
+
+**Problem**: Clicking component-folders in Components Panel didn't open the canvas
+
+**Root Cause**: Missing state update after navigating to component
+
+**Solution**:
+
+```typescript
+// File: useComponentsPanel.ts
+const isComponentFolder = treeItem.type === TSFixme.TreeItemType.ComponentSheet;
+if (isComponentFolder) {
+  eventDispatcher.notifyListeners(EditorEvent.NavigateToComponent, {
+    componentName: treeItem.model.fullName
+  });
+  // ✅ ADDED: Update folder state after navigation
+  setTimeout(() => {
+    onToggleFolderExpanded(treeItem.model.fullName);
+  }, 0);
+}
+```
+
+**Files Modified**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/ComponentsPanelNew/hooks/useComponentsPanel.ts`
+
+**Testing**: ✅ Verified - folders toggle AND canvas opens
+
+---
+
+### Bug 7A: Node Picker Icons (COMPLETE)
+
+**Date Completed**: 2026-01-16  
+**Status**: ✅ Icons rendering correctly
+
+**Problem**: CaretRight and Chat icons broken (404 errors)
+
+**Root Cause**: Using `<img src="/assets/icons/...">` which doesn't work with webpack module bundling
+
+**Solution**: Switched to `<Icon>` component from core-ui:
+
+```tsx
+// ❌ BEFORE
+<img src="/assets/icons/icon-chat.svg" />
+
+// ✅ AFTER
+<Icon icon={IconName.Chat} size={IconSize.Small} />
+```
+
+**Files Modified**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/components/NodePickerCategory/NodePickerCategory.tsx`
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/tabs/NodeLibrary/NodeLibrary.tsx`
+
+**Testing**: ✅ Verified - icons display correctly
+
+---
+
+### Bug 8A: Node Picker Manual Opening (COMPLETE)
+
+**Date Completed**: 2026-01-16  
+**Status**: ✅ Categories can be manually opened/closed during search
+
+**Problem**: After my previous fix for auto-expansion, manual clicking stopped working
+
+**Root Cause**: Stale closure in useEffect - `openAllCategories` function recreated on every render but effect only depended on `searchTerm`
+
+**Solution**:
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ BEFORE - Stale closure issue
+useEffect(() => {
+  if (searchTerm) {
+    openAllCategories(); // ← Stale reference!
+  }
+}, [searchTerm]); // Missing openAllCategories
+
+// ✅ AFTER - Fixed dependencies
+useEffect(() => {
+  if (searchTerm) {
+    openAllCategories();
+  }
+}, [searchTerm]); // Only searchTerm - function called fresh each time
+```
+
+**Files Modified**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/NodePicker.hooks.ts`
+
+**Key Learning**: In React hooks, don't include function dependencies that change every render. Either:
+
+1. Use `useCallback` to stabilize the function, OR
+2. Call the function knowing it's fresh (like here)
+
+**Testing**: ✅ Verified - can now manually open/close categories while searching
+
+---
+
+### Bug 9: Property Panel Width (COMPLETE)
+
+**Date Completed**: 2026-01-16  
+**Status**: ✅ Sidebar now responsive!
+
+**Problem**: Properties panel constrained to 380px even when sidebar resized
+
+**Root Cause**: Fixed `width: 380px` in CSS (spotted by Richard!)
+
+**Solution**:
+
+```scss
+// ❌ BEFORE
+.Root {
+  width: 380px;
+  transition: width 0.3s ease-in-out;
+
+  &--expanded {
+    width: 55vw;
+  }
+}
+
+// ✅ AFTER
+.Root {
+  min-width: 380px;
+  max-width: 55vw;
+  transition: width 0.3s ease-in-out;
+
+  &--expanded {
+    width: 55vw;
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Files Modified**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/app/SideNavigation/SideNavigation.module.scss`
+
+**Testing**: ✅ Verified by Richard - sidebar can be resized, properties panel expands

+
+## 🟡 Partially Complete / Blocked
+
+### Bug 7B: Canvas Node Icons (BLOCKED - Webpack Issue)
+
+**Status**: 🟡 Blocked - needs webpack configuration work  
+**Priority**: Medium
+
+**Problem**: Home, Component, AI Assistant, and Warning icons don't render on canvas
+
+**Investigation Results**:
+
+- ✅ Icon files exist: `packages/noodl-editor/src/assets/icons/core-ui-temp/`
+- ✅ Path in code is correct: `require('../../../assets/icons/core-ui-temp/home--nodegraph.svg')`
+- ❌ Problem: `require()` returns webpack module object instead of usable image path
+- ❌ Assignment: `this.homeIcon.src = [object Module]` (doesn't work)
+
+**Root Cause**: Webpack SVG loader configuration issue for canvas context
+
+**Attempted Solutions**:
+
+1. ❌ Checked if files exist - they do
+2. ❌ Verified path is correct - it is
+3. 🔍 Need to investigate: Webpack config for SVG assets
+
+**Next Steps**:
+
+1. Check webpack config for SVG handling
+2. May need to use dynamic imports: `import('@/assets/...')`
+3. Or configure webpack url-loader for these specific assets
+4. Alternative: Convert to data URLs at build time
+
+**Files to Investigate**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-editor/webpackconfigs/`
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/nodegrapheditor.ts` (lines 396-416)
+
+**Workaround**: None currently - icons just don't show
+
+---
+
+### Bug 8B: Node Picker Auto-Expand on Search (PARTIAL)
+
+**Status**: 🟡 Deferred - complex reducer timing issue  
+**Priority**: Medium
+
+**Problem**: Categories don't automatically expand when filtering/searching (though manual opening works)
+
+**What Works**:
+
+- ✅ Manual clicking to open/close categories
+- ✅ Search filtering shows correct nodes
+- ✅ `openAllCategories()` function IS being called
+
+**What Doesn't Work**:
+
+- ❌ Categories don't auto-expand when you type in search
+
+**Investigation Results**:
+
+```typescript
+// NodePicker.hooks.ts - This IS being called
+useEffect(() => {
+  if (searchTerm) {
+    console.log('🔍 Calling openAllCategories'); // ← Logs correctly
+    openAllCategories();
+  }
+}, [searchTerm]);
+
+// The dispatch happens:
+dispatch({ type: 'openAllCategories' });
+
+// But the state doesn't propagate to components correctly
+```
+
+**Root Cause Hypothesis**: Reducer state update timing issue
+
+- The reducer action executes
+- But `NodePickerCategory` components don't receive updated `isCollapsed` prop
+- Likely: State update batching or stale closure in the reducer
+
+**Next Steps to Debug**:
+
+1. Add logging in reducer to verify action reaches it
+2. Check if `cursorState.openCategories` updates correctly
+3. Verify `getIsCategoryCollapsed()` function logic
+4. May need to use `useReducer` dispatch in a ref to ensure stable reference
+
+**Files to Investigate**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/NodePicker.reducer.ts`
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/NodePicker.hooks.ts`
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/NodePicker/tabs/NodeLibrary/NodeLibrary.tsx`
+
+**Workaround**: Users can manually click category headers to expand
+
+**Decision**: Deferred for now - manual opening is acceptable UX
+
+---
+
+### Bug 5: Code Editor Modal Close (COMPLETE)
+
+**Date Completed**: 2026-01-16  
+**Status**: ✅ Working - Close button added to JavaScriptEditor
+
+**Problem**: Code editor popout couldn't be closed by clicking outside - user expected outside-click-to-close but it didn't work due to complex event propagation issues between React/CodeMirror and jQuery popup layer.
+
+**Root Cause**: The `popuplayer.js` click detection relies on body event bubbling, but events within CodeMirror/React components don't always propagate to jQuery's body click handler. Debugging this would require extensive changes to the legacy popup system.
+
+**Solution**: Added explicit "Close" button to JavaScriptEditor toolbar (better UX anyway!):
+
+```tsx
+// JavaScriptEditor.tsx - Added onClose prop and Close button
+{
+  onClose && (
+    <button
+      onClick={() => {
+        if (onSave) {
+          const currentCode = editorViewRef.current?.state.doc.toString() || '';
+          onSave(currentCode);
+        }
+        onClose();
+      }}
+      className={css['CloseButton']}
+      title="Save and Close (Escape)"
+      type="button"
+    >
+      Close
+    </button>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+**Files Modified**:
+
+- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/code-editor/utils/types.ts` - Added `onClose` to props interface
+- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/code-editor/JavaScriptEditor.tsx` - Added Close button UI
+- `packages/noodl-core-ui/src/components/code-editor/JavaScriptEditor.module.scss` - Added CloseButton styles
+- `packages/noodl-editor/src/editor/src/views/panels/propertyeditor/CodeEditor/CodeEditorType.ts` - Wired up `onClose` to call `parent.hidePopout()`
+
+**Testing**: ✅ Needs user verification - Close button should save and close the editor
+
+**UX Improvement**: Close button is more discoverable than outside-click anyway!

+## 📚 Key Learnings & Patterns
+
+### React Hook Dependencies
+
+**Learning**: Be very careful with function dependencies in useEffect
+
+```typescript
+// ❌ BAD - Stale closure if function recreated every render
+const doSomething = () => { /* uses state */ };
+useEffect(() => {
+  doSomething(); // ← Stale reference!
+}, [someValue]); // Missing doSomething dependency
+
+// ✅ OPTION 1 - Stabilize with useCallback
+const doSomething = useCallback(() => { /* uses state */ }, [dependencies]);
+useEffect(() => {
+  doSomething();
+}, [someValue, doSomething]);
+
+// ✅ OPTION 2 - Don't depend on external function if it's always fresh
+useEffect(() => {
+  doSomething(); // Call fresh function from render scope
+}, [someValue]); // OK if doSomething not in dependencies and you know it's fresh
+```
+
+### Icon Loading Patterns
+
+**Learning**: Different contexts need different asset loading strategies
+
+```typescript
+// ✅ GOOD - In React components, use Icon component
+<Icon icon={IconName.CaretRight} />
+
+// ❌ BAD - Direct img src doesn't work with webpack
+<img src="/assets/icons/..." />
+
+// 🤔 CANVAS CONTEXT - require() doesn't work for img.src
+this.icon.src = require('@/assets/icon.svg'); // Returns module object
+
+// ✅ CANVAS SOLUTION - Need dynamic import or data URLs
+import iconUrl from '@/assets/icon.svg'; // Webpack will handle
+this.icon.src = iconUrl;
+```
+
+### CSS Flexibility
+
+**Learning**: Use min/max width instead of fixed width for resizable elements
+
+```scss
+// ❌ Rigid
+width: 380px;
+
+// ✅ Flexible
+min-width: 380px;
+max-width: 55vw;
+```
+
+### Event Timing
+
+**Learning**: Sometimes you need `setTimeout(fn, 0)` to let state updates settle
+
+```typescript
+// When navigating then updating UI:
+navigate(componentName);
+setTimeout(() => {
+  updateUI(); // Let navigation complete first
+}, 0);
+```
+
