-## Side Panel Focus Pattern
-
-We use a consistent focus management pattern for side panels:
-
-- **Open**: focus the first actionable element inside the panel.
-- **Close**: restore focus to the button that opened the panel.
-
-Implementation summary:
-
-1. A provider stores a `panelRef` and a registry of trigger refs (`setTrigger/getTrigger`).
-2. Each trigger button registers itself with `setTrigger("key", el)`.
-3. Panel content uses `useRestoreFocus` with:
-   - `resolveTrigger` → returns `getTrigger("key")`.
-   - `onOpened` → finds the first actionable element inside `panelRef`.
-
-Example:
-
-```tsx
-// Trigger button
-;<ToggleButton ref={(el) => setTrigger('tools', el)} />
-
-// Panel content
-useRestoreFocus(isOpen, {
-  resolveTrigger: (activeEl) => getTrigger('tools') ?? activeEl,
-  onOpened: () => {
-    const first = panelRef.current?.querySelector(
-      '[data-attr="tools-list"] button'
-    )
-    // Leading semicolon avoids ASI issues when a line starts with '('
-    ;(first as HTMLElement | null)?.focus({ preventScroll: true })
-  },
-})
-```
