Subject: [PATCH] Redesign frontend: IBM Plex Mono, black/white editorial
 aesthetic
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

- IBM Plex Mono font from Google Fonts for the monospace character
- Pure black/white/gray palette — no colors except red for errors/danger
- 1px solid black borders system throughout (no shadows, no rounding)
- Header nav uses border-left separators with hover backgrounds
- Primary button: solid black; copy button: white outline (visually distinct)
- Share box: readonly input + copy button flush with no gap
- Table: outer border + gray header row + subtle row hover
- File view: centered with border around video/audio players
- Danger button: red outline, fills on hover
