+## 2026-04-04 - 3.55.1 - fix(appui)
+replace hardcoded app UI theme colors with shared dees CSS variables
+
+- Standardizes app UI component styling on shared --dees-* theme tokens across app bar, menus, tabs, main content, and bottom bar

+
+## 2026-04-04 - 3.55.0 - feat(theme)
+centralize theme CSS tokens in theme defaults and add missing interactive color variables
