New article
Route: modal from anywhere · /article/new. API: POST /v1/article/.
Recommendation: a modal. Title is the only field. The body is not asked for here; it is written in the editor, which opens straight after. Keeping the page underneath means cancelling costs nothing. /article/new opens the same modal over the article list, so it can be linked to and the back button closes it. A successful create always makes a draft and goes to the editor.
Visual reference: RenewCMS Screens Back-office.dc.html, groups "New article". Frames: AppFrame.dc.html (shell, sidebar, topbar, drawer) plus the screen frame where listed in components.md.
Copy per state (generated from the board source, pass 2)
Every state below is drawn in light and dark (theme switch on the board), at 1440×900 and 390×844 (both frames sit side by side). Board: RenewCMS Screens Back-office.dc.html. Copy is exact; where a cell is empty the state reuses the fixed copy.
