+## DEC-065 — Reuse the workspace as a route-backed list overlay
+
+- **Date:** 2026-08-10
+- **Decision:** Keep `/applications/:id` as the full-page fallback, but make a table row's primary Open action render that same workspace in a MUI dialog at `/jobs?workspace={id}&section={section}`. Use a pushed history entry for opening, replace only section changes, Back for UI-originated close and query removal for direct-link close.
+- **Reason/evidence:** V-158 confirmed that the previous quick-dialog/full-page chain discarded list context and could not deep-link the embedded presentation. The workspace already composes the authoritative domain components; reusing it avoids a second workspace. MUI supplies the requested focus trap/restoration and full-screen mobile presentation.
+- **Alternatives considered:** build a second drawer workspace; keep the quick dialog primary; clone workspace sections into `JobTable`; make the full-page route the only URL. These duplicate ownership or leave the Phase 11 navigation defect.
+- **Consequences:** list state remains mounted while the overlay is open, direct workspace/section URLs and Back/Forward work, and a full-page link remains. Complete URL-backed filters and unsaved-edit guards are separate required increments before JOBS-002 can leave progress.
+- **User approval required:** No; this is approved repository implementation with mocked local data and no production/provider action.
+- **Reversible:** Revert the JOBS-002 overlay commit; no schema, dependency or stored-data change is involved.

 - **Deployment status:** Gitea pull-request run 609 passed the complete CI job in 4m20s. Deploy was intentionally skipped because the workflow deploys only a `push` to `main`; live remains unchanged. No merge/deployment was performed directly, no production migrations were run and the AI operation worker remains disabled by default.
 - **Production status:** Unchanged and unverified. No provider/model call, model pull, external request or paid API occurred.
 - **Known regressions:** None found by automated/local browser checks. Jest still needs `--forceExit` and reports its existing open-handle notice. Email-provider/send tests are fake/local only; real delivery is not claimed. Current MAIL browser evidence is 1280×720 only because the browser surface could not resize or perform native Tab traversal. Interrupted attempts are aged after 15 minutes and notified without retry; the five-minute scan is unmeasured on a large ledger. Direct clean EF-only SQLite migration still hits the pre-existing historical blank-chain defect before later migrations; normal startup owns reconciliation. Cross-feature monthly AI usage accounting remains a rollout gap.
