## Column Definitions

| Column | PMR Meaning | CV Mapping |
|--------|------------|------------|
| Drug Name | Medication name | Skill name |
| Dose | Dosage strength | Proficiency percentage |
| Frequency | How often taken | How often the skill is used (Daily / Weekly / Monthly / As needed) |
| Start | Date prescribed | Year Andy started using this skill (approximate) |
| Status | Active / Stopped | Active (green dot) for current skills, Historical (gray dot) for deprecated skills |

## Medication Categories (tabs within the view)

Skills are grouped into three "medication types," mimicking how clinical systems separate regular, acute, and PRN medications:

- **Active Medications** = Technical skills (the "regular medications" — taken daily, core to function)
- **Clinical Medications** = Healthcare domain skills (the specialist prescriptions)
- **PRN (As Required)** = Strategic & leadership skills (used situationally, not daily)

## Table Styling

- Table headers: [UI font] 600, 13px, uppercase, gray-400, `#F9FAFB` background
- Table rows: alternating `#FFFFFF` / `#F9FAFB` backgrounds
- Row height: 40px
- All borders: `1px solid #E5E7EB`
- Hover state: row background changes to `#EFF6FF` (subtle blue tint)
- Status dots: 6px circles, inline with status text

## Interaction — Prescribing History

Clicking any medication/skill row expands it downward to show a "prescribing history" — a mini-timeline of how the skill developed:

```
Python | 90% | Daily | 2017 | Active (green)
  |-- Prescribing History:
     2017  Started: Self-taught for data analysis automation
     2019  Increased: Dashboard development, data pipeline work
     2022  Specialist use: Blueteq automation, Sankey analysis tools
     2024  Advanced: Switching algorithm (14,000 patients), CD monitoring
     2025  Current: Population-level analytics, incentive scheme automation
```

The history entries are styled in Geist Mono, 12px, with year markers as bold anchors and descriptions in regular weight. This "prescribing history" shows skill progression in a format that clinicians understand intuitively.

## Sortable Columns

Table columns are sortable by clicking the header. Clicking "Dose" sorts by proficiency descending. Clicking "Start" sorts chronologically. A small sort indicator arrow appears in the active sort column header. Default sort: by category grouping.

## Design Guidance

### Aesthetic Direction

**Clinical Luxury**

The medications-as-skills metaphor uses the *structure* of an active medications list — tabs, table layout, status indicators, prescribing history — but executed with premium refinement. Layered shadows on cards, generous spacing, refined typography. Light-mode only.

**Purpose:** Present 18 professional skills as an active medications list. Clinicians recognize the format; recruiters get navigable, information-dense content.

**Tone:** Precise, structured, refined. Tables and borders provide clinical authenticity; shadows, typography, and spacing provide the luxury finish. Clinical systems are designed for rapid information retrieval under time pressure — that same quality makes this an efficient skills display.

**Constraints:**
- Light-mode ONLY
- NHS blue `#005EB8` as the sole accent color
- Border radius 4px for clinical elements
- [UI font] for all text (Elvaro or Blumir — see CLAUDE.md), Geist Mono for prescribing history data
- Borders `1px solid #E5E7EB` on tables
- Card surfaces with multi-layered shadows per design system

**Differentiation:** The medications-as-skills mapping provides richer data than any traditional "skills list." Dose maps to proficiency, Frequency maps to usage patterns, Start maps to when the skill was acquired, and prescribing history shows the skill's evolution over time. Genuinely useful information architecture.

### Key Design Decisions

#### 1. Three Category Tabs
- **"Active Medications"** (8 technical skills), **"Clinical Medications"** (6 healthcare domain skills), **"PRN (As Required)"** (4 strategic/leadership skills)
- Active tab: white background + NHS blue (`#005EB8`) 2px bottom border
- Inactive tabs: `#F9FAFB` background, gray text, hover brightens to white
- Count badges show the number of items per category
- Full ARIA `role="tablist"`, `role="tab"`, `aria-selected`, `aria-controls` semantics

#### 2. Semantic HTML Table
- Proper `<table>`, `<thead>`, `<th scope="col">`, `<tbody>`, `<tr>`, `<td>` markup
- Five columns: Drug Name, Dose, Frequency, Start, Status
- Headers: [UI font] 600, 13px, uppercase, 0.03em tracking, `#F9FAFB` background
- Row height: 40px
- Alternating `#FFFFFF` / `#F9FAFB` row backgrounds via CSS `:nth-child(even)`
- Hover state: `#EFF6FF` (subtle blue tint)
- Status dots: 6px green circles inline with "Active" text
- All borders: `1px solid #E5E7EB`

#### 3. Sortable Columns
- Click any header to sort (ascending/descending toggle)
- ChevronUp, ChevronDown, or ChevronsUpDown indicator in header
- Sorting logic handles string, numeric (dose %), and date (year) columns
- Default: no sort (original order preserved)

#### 4. Expandable Prescribing History
- Click any row (or arrow at row end) to expand
- Uses Framer Motion `<AnimatePresence>` for smooth height animation (0.2s)
- History entries styled in Geist Mono 12px
- Year markers bold, descriptions regular weight
- Format: `2017 Started: Self-taught for data analysis automation`
- Vertical timeline with connecting line on left

#### 5. Mobile: Card Layout
- Below 640px: Table hidden, cards displayed
- Each card is a bordered block with stacked key-value pairs
- No horizontal scroll required
- Same expandable history behavior

### Implementation Patterns / Code Snippets

#### Types
```typescript
interface MedicationEntry {
  drugName: string
  dose: string
  frequency: string
  start: string
  status: 'Active'
  prescribingHistory: PrescribingEvent[]
}

interface PrescribingEvent {
  year: string
  label: string
  description: string
}

type MedicationCategory = 'active' | 'clinical' | 'prn'
```

#### Tab Implementation
```typescript
const tabs: { key: MedicationCategory; label: string }[] = [
  { key: 'active', label: 'Active Medications' },
  { key: 'clinical', label: 'Clinical Medications' },
  { key: 'prn', label: 'PRN (As Required)' },
]

{tabs.map(({ key, label }) => (
  <button
    key={key}
    role="tab"
    aria-selected={category === key}
    aria-controls={`${key}-panel`}
    onClick={() => setCategory(key)}
    className={cn(
      'px-4 py-2 font-inter text-sm font-medium transition-colors',
      category === key
        ? 'bg-white text-[#005EB8] border-b-2 border-[#005EB8]'
        : 'bg-[#F9FAFB] text-gray-600 hover:bg-white'
    )}
  >
    {label}
  </button>
))}
```

#### Table Row with Expand
```typescript
<tr
  onClick={() => toggleExpanded(drugName)}
  className="h-[40px] border-b border-[#E5E7EB] cursor-pointer transition-colors hover:bg-[#EFF6FF]"
>
  <td className="px-4 py-2 text-sm font-medium text-gray-900">
    {drugName}
  </td>
  {/* ... other cells ... */}
</tr>

<AnimatePresence>
  {isExpanded && (
    <motion.tr
      initial={{ height: 0, opacity: 0 }}
      animate={{ height: 'auto', opacity: 1 }}
      exit={{ height: 0, opacity: 0 }}
      transition={{ duration: 0.2 }}
    >
      <td colSpan={5} className="px-4 py-3 bg-[#F9FAFB]">
        <div className="font-mono text-xs space-y-1">
          {prescribingHistory.map((event) => (
            <div key={event.year} className="flex gap-3">
              <span className="font-bold text-gray-700">{event.year}</span>
              <span className="text-gray-600">{event.label}:</span>
              <span className="text-gray-500">{event.description}</span>
            </div>
          ))}
        </div>
      </td>
    </motion.tr>
  )}
</AnimatePresence>
```

#### Sort Indicator
```typescript
const SortIndicator = ({ column }: { column: SortColumn }) => {
  if (sort.column !== column) {
    return <ChevronsUpDown className="w-3.5 h-3.5 text-gray-400" />
  }
  return sort.direction === 'asc'
    ? <ChevronUp className="w-3.5 h-3.5 text-[#005EB8]" />
    : <ChevronDown className="w-3.5 h-3.5 text-[#005EB8]" />
}
```

#### Status Dot
```typescript
<div className="flex items-center gap-2">
  <span className="w-1.5 h-1.5 rounded-full bg-green-500" />
  <span className="text-sm text-gray-700">Active</span>
</div>
```
