- Garden and plant dialogs keep centimeters as the source of truth
(LengthField in lib/units.ts): a no-change Save no longer rewrites
900 cm as 899.922 or a 45 cm spacing as 44.958, bumping versions and
writing bogus history entries on the way.
- The UI stamps every date with the browser's local day (lib/dates.ts).
Journal notes already did; plop placement, fill and removal now do too,
so a 9 pm placement isn't "planted tomorrow". The fill endpoint gained an
optional plantedAt; API and agent callers still default to UTC today.
- Removing an object that holds plants asks first and says how many go
with it. An empty one still goes straight away (one Undo restores it).
- The expanded plant card's action row wraps instead of clipping "Delete".
- Monogram lettering switches to a dark ink on pale marker colors (garlic,
cabbage, marigold) instead of near-white on near-white.
- Copy-as-plan proposes the next free year and warns when the typed name
already exists, so two gardens can't both read as "the 2027 plan".
- Plan cards show the base name with a "2027 plan" tag, so the year — the
point of the name — survives truncation.
- A rejected model spec now says which model and why: a wrapped
ErrInvalidInput's reason reaches the client as the 400's message, and the
Settings field shows it inline instead of toasting "invalid input".
Also defuses a clock bomb in TestRemainingReturnsWhenAPlantingIsRemoved,
which only passed while the real date was before 2026-08-01.

The toolbox could create and move but not delete or resize; write the
journal but not read it; clear a whole bed but not pull one plant; report
seed remaining but not record a purchase. Close those gaps with thin
adapters over the SAME service methods the REST API uses, so they inherit
the permission checks unchanged:
read_journal → ListJournal (the write/read asymmetry, most visible)
update_object → UpdateObject (resize / rotate / rename / plantable)
delete_object → DeleteObject (counterpart to create_object)
remove_planting → UpdatePlanting (soft-remove ONE plop, like clear does)
list_seed_lots → ListSeedLots
record_seed_lot → CreateSeedLot (record a purchase; "I bought 2 packets")
To address a single plop the agent needs its id + version, so
DescribePlanting now carries both — the same way DescribeObject.Version
already lets it edit an object. remove_planting soft-removes (removed_at =
today), mirroring clear_object, so the plant stays in planting history and
the change is undoable.
Deferred deliberately: an undo/revert tool needs a way to list recent
change sets to get a changeSetId, which is a larger addition; noted on the
issue for a follow-up.
Tested through the tool layer (TestCorrectiveTools): resize, single-plop
removal, journal read-back, seed-lot record+list, and delete.

Steve chose option 3: keep clumps as the default primitive, add a grid/rows
fill mode, so sketching and planning are different operations with different
outputs rather than one model forced to be both.
A plop is a CLUMP, not a plant — great for "a few plops of garlic in a corner",
useless for drawing a plantable 8-rows-of-garlic bed (that came out as ~15
blobs, #77). FillLayout selects what a fill packs:
- clump (default, unchanged): radius 1.5×spacing, ~7 plants per plop.
- grid: radius spacing/2, pitch = spacing, ONE plant per plop — rows you could
actually plant from.
The geometry is the SAME hexCenters lattice and the SAME #75 half-spacing edge
rule; only the radius→spacing relationship differs (plopRadiusFor). Grid keeps
no 15cm floor — its whole point is true spacing — while clump keeps it so a
tiny-spacing plant doesn't make invisible clumps.
Threaded through FillRegion/FillNamedRegion (empty layout = clump, so existing
callers are unchanged; unknown layout = ErrInvalidInput), the REST /fill
endpoint (`layout`), and the agent's fill_region tool (`mode`, enum clump|grid),
so "plant the bed in rows" works.
Tests: grid produces many more, single-plant plops than clump on the same bed
(radius spacing/2, derived count 1); unknown layout is refused at both the
service and the API. maxFillPlops still caps a grid fill of a huge bed.
No frontend fill affordance exists yet (fill is agent-only in the UI; the fill
UI was deferred in #82), so the mode toggle rides along when that's built —
noted. Docs: DESIGN placement-model decision.
