Research direction
Read .claude/skills/mui-to-bui-migration/SKILL.md and the migration tracker in issue 7023 first, then choose one listed workspace. Compare its existing UI with the migrated examples in workspaces/announcements, workspaces/azure-devops/plugins/azure-devops, workspaces/linguist/plugins/linguist, or workspaces/manage/plugins. Done means one workspace is migrated, its checkbox can be completed, and the PR is approved and merged before starting another.
